    A coworker has an F150 with about 160k miles. It's had one brake job at about 70k. He heard a noise that sounded like the pad wear indicator so he bought some pads, etc. on his way home that night, anticipating doing a brake job. He found the same thing you did and had to look elsewhere for his noise.

    He had used a premium aftermarket pad on the first brake job. Was in disbelief.

    Actually I haul things quite a bit. I often have my ATV in the back of the truck and pull a utility trailer and a travel trailer fairly often. I do a fair amount of local driving as this truck is my daily driver. The brakes have always been great on this truck, a sharp contrast to my full-size Bronco I had before it. I don't remember how many brake jobs I did on that in 195K miles.
