based on the inputs so far, I have decided to take the Sequoia (price: around $5000, he takes care of the brake pads and rotors.
2016 Toyota Avalon Hybrid with 170k miles.
-Still original brakes
-Only done maintenance on it, no issues.
immediately replaced rotors/pads and replaced yellowed headlights. All the parts were dirt cheap on Rock Auto.
I swapped my FJ cruiser stock front brakes for the larger GX460/V8 4Runner discs, calipers, and shields, as well as adding stainless lines as a nice upgrade package.
recently went to brakemasters to get brake pads for my 2014 rav 4. Set of front brake pads only ( 4 pads) with labor total $180.
Man I love my old Corolla. $20 for front brake pads and a half hour of relaxing wrenching to do the job.
I've had my 2013, 89,000 miles, which isn't *that* old but still, and have had zero mechanical problems. Only maintenance and expected repairs like brake pads or air filters.
Toyota hybrids have no starter, no belts, no alternator to wear out and the brake pads and disks last around 100,000 miles due to little use
I replaced the pads on with Endless MX-72. Similar progressive bite to OEM, just more and WAY more thermal capacity. They feel like the ultimate brake pad. Using OEM rotors, I've had zero \"warping\" since switching over. This leads me to think that the rotors aren't actually warping but the nature of the OEM pads leads to pad deposits on the rotors. I get close to 60,000 Miles out of a set and have never considered another pad after discovering them.
Endless pads which create a absurd amount of dust and also has a lot of noise under low breaking driving.
