I think it comes down to people not wanting to pay stealer prices. However we do have some good ones that offer the best pricing.

I do not remember how many miles my truck had on it when I bought it. I want to say 180K but it couldn't be lower than 140K, I now only have 240K and I am now on my 4th set of brakes.
I barely use my brakes and only drive like 5k a yr. I do not have time on OEM pads for a comparison but compared to others; you can see that these "performance" pads don't last. Granted I just pulled set 3 and they probably had half life left. I just barely started set 4.

I have owned this truck since 2006 IIRC. When I first got it, it was used to pull heavy loads and was driving more miles. I guess it's time to go back to OEM after this set. I think they have the standard pads/ rotors and HD

 

I’m leaning the same direction.
I’m taking the front rotors to a machine shop this morning to see they can be turned. The inner pad on the R/F corner is completely worn out, I’m hoping the rotor is not damaged beyond repair. If I can get them cleaned up, I will most likely pick up new pads from the dealership and swap them out.

 

If you are getting uneven wear on the pads, then the calipers need attention.
maybe I read it wrong, but from what you just said, it sounds like you have uneven wear
