Your probably not gonna believe this, but I sold an ‘09 Tacoma in 2019 with almost 100k miles on it and it STILL didn’t need front brake pads.

Kept the oil changed and had a trans service at 75k.

It never missed a lick.....ever.

My 2004 GMC had over 200,000 miles before requiring brake pads.
My 2015 Silverado with 234,000 miles still on the factory pads.
Wife’s 2014 Camaro with 161,000 miles still on the factory pads.

For some reason Toyota never need front break pads. They did something that resulted in this. My mechanic informed me of this when I thought I needed new pads on my Toyota. I forgot what the game changing thing was he told me.

I have a 2013 Ram 3500 that I bought new and I changed brake pads the firs time at 150,000 miles and they still had 40% remaining. I regularly towl at 21,000 pound trailer.
