I had an 01 supercrew and never had to turn the rotors with 60k on them.

My '04 F150 is fine. I've got 47k miles and haven't had a problem. It probably is time to change the brakes though huh?

Ford is notorious for poor braking performance. I had an 01 supercrew and changed the brake pads about every 16-18K miles. I finally put a high performance brake kit on it. I put 51K miles on it before I traded it in for my new HD.
Here is a comparison, buddy of mine bought an 01 Chevy Silverado in Jan, of 01. I bought my F150 in May of 01. I changed my brake pads 3 times and he never once changed his pads. Still had meat on them when he traded in his truck a few months ago. Both of us tow boats................go fugure.

Just had my 04 F-150 30K service. Brakes still have 95% of the pads left. Mechanic said no warping in the rotors.

Yup. They suck. I have an 05 F150. The brake dust was a pain. I changed to Powerslot rotors (Front & Rear) and Raybestos brake pad #'s 1011, 1012. No brake dust at all now, even with 35 inch tires.
