98 Expedition Yearly brake rotor replace?

Ive been driving my 98 Exp. for 3 years. Every year when it start hearing screaching, I bring it in to the mechanic. This is third time Im told I need new brakes and rotors. I drive mostly highway about 15,000 miles/yr. The mechanic says Exp"s eat up brakes. I have a light touch and used to get three or more years on other cars. Can this be true? Anyone have this problem or am I being taken? Phil

Make sure you torgue the bolts on the rim to spec. with a torque wrench "not one of those adaptors" they use in impact guns. Also check the pads are the right ones.
