Yah, I am wondering when I should budget to change them. They dust up pretty good.

I have just under 18k on mine. I just looked and I would say I have about 4-6mm of pad left before I get to the wear indicator spring. Rears have quite a bit more left on them. Majority of my driving is around town. I would guess they will go to 25k or a bit more.

you don't have over 20K listed on the poll. been in for service 2 weeks ago and still did not have to change them yet. i use to drive 100+ miles a day so there was not a braking going on.

Like Copter, I've got 33k and my dealer just told me I had 5.5mm left and they usually don't replace them until 2.5mm.
