Wasn't trying to flame anyone when I disagreed with the generalization that Tundra's all eat brakes. Just recounting my personal experience. FWIW when I had my truck serviced at around 65K, the mechanic refused to believe that I hadn't had at LEAST one brake job until he pulled the wheels and looked for himself. Told me that he'd never seen one make it past 30K w/o new pads. Whatever, unless some very quiet little elves came by and did a brake job for me in the middle of the night , I've got a Tundra sitting in the parking lot with almost 90K miles on it, and the factory original pads on it.

Probably 70+ % of my driving is highway miles, but the other 30% is city driving and I'm not gentle on my brakes.

Those of you turned off on Tundra's because of your bad experiences with brakes, I"m sorry to hear about it and wish you well with whatever you choose to replace it with.
