Original Brakes 03 Tahoe 113,000 miles ???

I am wondering if this are the best brake pads ever or what is going on?? I have like 65% life on them now.<o

I am the original owner of my Tahoe but I have never needed to change the brake pads; original from dealer (front & rear). I have 113,000 miles. I don’t have a heavy foot, I don't race from red light to red light, I let go the accelerator to help the car stop or slow down, same thing in the freeway I don't brake to slow down; just step off the accelerator. This probably my normal driving but now and then I do drive faster then I should….. <o

Is the life of the brake pads normal?? And when I do replace them I am thinking of using the same dealer brake pads…I do see why not??<o

Hi. I am in the same condition (100.000 Km in Italy) and my brakes are very good. Perhaps is the way of driving, but I think also the quality of material pad.
I am very fine for this. Bye bye.
