I'm at 32000km so far and will probably need some in another 6000km.
I do a lot of in town start stop driving during the week and when doing long trips in the summer, the bronco is packed with camping gear and towing a couple yaks on a trailer.
So I probably am a little harder on them then some people but so far so good.
Definitely looking for good replacement ideas for the next set though if anyone has them.

I took factory pads off and replaced at only 3000 miles. So can't say for longevity, but I replaced them with power stop Z17 pads and they stop a bit better than oem pads. And they're ceramic so less dust too at a good price.

I’m at 57k on our BB BS and the fronts are still alright. We had the backs replaced so I’m not expecting to change those for another 50-60k.

Mine were replaced at 40k when I purchased it from my dealer. They were replaced with to OEs but once they are done, I plan on going the same route. PowerStop has a kit including ceramic pads with drilled/slotted rotors all the way around for like $400

The life of your brake pads depends on how you drive. If you drive in Sport mode and race to the next stop light, they won't last long. If you drive like a bluehair old man or woman, you might get 100,000 miles out of them.

I got 117,000 miles on the rear pads. I currently have 136,000 miles on the original front pads.

I use adaptive cruise control often.

Actual miles not km? Lol, You got a good one for sure. All regular maintenance? I haven't heard of too many BS that are over 100,000k miles yet.
