How many miles before you had to replace brakes, tires, battery, etc ...

Dealer just checked my front brake pads last month @ 119,000 miles.

30% worn.



Unbelievable.

I commonly see people who have gone through 2 brake jobs by now, sadly to say that they are typically American cars. At this pace, I will be over 300K before my first brake job.

I would say that is very believable! When I had inspection with 20,000 miles, my mechanic said I have no visible signs of brake pad wear. He said, these brakes are brand new looking and should get you well over 100,000 mi before you need to change them! I guess hypermiling has its benefits

Cheers!
