Default Re: disposable brake rotors?

Our 2005 Jimmy is about ready for new rotors at about 50K miles. They are litterally rotting off the truck just like the rotors did on our Saturn. There is still all kinds of pad left. We have a '87 S10 truck with over 130K miles on it and the brakes are all original and don't rust out. It sits far more than it is used. I would think that brakes, being as important as they are, should be the last place that short cuts should be allowed.
