True True. I hadn't considered the weight. These are all pretty hefty vehicles aren't they. That would certainly contribute to rotor and pad wear.

And yes,...a lot of used vehicles need brake work, either pads, rotors, or almost always the fluid changed, or all three!. Like I said above, I'm prety anal about brakes anyway, so I would certainly give them a good going over before driving home whatever i get.

Anyway, thanks for the help. I do appreciate it.
