Default Re: disposable brake rotors?

I had a 2001 Chevy 2500HD that I finally put rear brakes on at 220k miles. When I sold the truck at 230k miles it still had the original front brakes. I did however cut all 4 rotors at approx. 100k due to warpage.

My 2005 2500HD now has 130K. I cut the front rotors at 100K due to very slight warpage. The pucks on all 4 corners still look great.

There is way more than enough meat on the HD rotors to cut them several times. Don't know about the 1/2 tons.

I am not the easiest on the brakes by far and tow the car trailer quite a bit.
