Eco driving is good for brakes
Just measured the brake linings on my truck at 91,000 miles.
Front: Currently 6 mm remaining, 12 mm when new, wear limit is 1 mm.
Rear: Currently 3 mm remaining, 4.5 mm when new, wear limit is 1 mm.
Since I have three downhill full stops on my commute to work, and a few more downhill stops on weekends, I'd say that's not too bad.
