Replaced the original brakes on my 2014 SS Sedan a few months ago with 130K miles on them with 30% pad left.

My Yukon has 60+% pad left at 100K so will likely do the brakes next year or so. Going to upgrade to 16" rotors & 6 piston calipers in front. Not sure on the rear brakes yet.

I don't use my brakes much. LOL

All brake pads look like this

You must live downhill if you still have the original brakes. Or, you have a hearing exam scheduled soon. Keep it rolling!!!
I replaced my OEM brakes on my 2017 at 125k. They still had some life left, but the front rotors were starting to pulse when hot. Most of my GM vehicles over the years have given me well over 100k on the first set of brakes. Driving style and type of commute definitely plays into the life span as well. The rear pads were original on my 2008 yukon- replaced at 182k, fronts were replaced around 120k, I think, before I bought it.

You just let me know when you hit that 400,000 mile club we need some new members!
I've taken a few vehicles past the 250K miles that still had original engine & transmission that still ran great and looked like new. I keep my vehicles clean & maintain them myself.

Not sure I'll live long enough to get to 400K miles on my Yukon, I have too many vehicles that I rotate thru so none sit. Will try to reach 200K sometime in 2029. I have a 15K road trip planned next year but that's in my 1973 Camaro retro-mod that I'm working on & hasn't been driven in 22 years.
