Top 10 reasons your brake pads wear out
1 through 10: Brakes are only applied to reduce gas mileage. When brakes are applied, you have to overcome the lost momentum by applying throttle. Think About It! 
Yes, I am right, as always 
I use my rear brakes in casual stops, trying to save my front pads for when I really need them. MISTAKE, because I apply my rear brakes along with the front in emergencies. Usually a little early. I bought the cheap pads on ebay from brakeplanet, and like them much better since they stop you just as well and are quieter, but they do leave a little more dust on your rims. But at $20 a pair?

the America guys use brakes up faster
Yota, We use pads faster, because the Americas are faster. Simple spacial aptitude. I mean, who had to get the BB kits first? Who was the first to rejet and get 36" diameter mufflers?
