Not if you do it for a living..... takes the "fun" right out of it.

For the first time since new, I replaced the brakes on my 1999 Silverado 2500 last summer, 175,000 miles,,

For the first time ever in my 50 years of vehicle ownership, the rear brakes were more worn than the fronts.
Actually, the brakes were not in dire need of replacement, but they were close.

That's either b.s or you have some really weird driving habits.

My brother got about the same in the ford E250 van he had, used it to move furniture.

No brakes yet on my 12 Chevy express 3500. 110k

Yeah, if you don't ride the brakes, wait until the last second to stop and pull trailers with brakes..... it's not unheard of to get any of those mileages. I've seen it.

When I sold my Dodge diesel it had over 500,000 miles. I bought it with 250,000 on it. I think I only put 2 sets of front brakes on. I know I only did the rears once. But it had really big rear brakes. :biggrin2:

2006 chevy 2500hd 141,092 miles as of today original brakes still working ok
Nice work Tim.

GM has their brakes figured out. I get about 125k on a set in my 10,000lb dually daily driver in Atlanta traffic.

I have 128,400 miles on my GMC 2500 Duramax, Have pulled a 35ft Montana 5th wheel many-many miles, The brakes are still in good shape.

Are they PowerStop Z23 Tim? I order the complete kit (Except calipers) for my 2015 GMC Terrain SUV , my rear brake are totally toasted after just 36,000 miles. I barely use that truck once a month, but since I will give it in exchange for a Infinity QX60 or a GMC Sierra before the end of this year I do a full brake job.

I got a 20% rebate ($344 instead of $405) from AW
