Oh I think that this idea is fucking stupid. But to say that you only replace brakes every 5-6 years is even fucking stupider. Hell in a given year I can put on 40-50,000 km ill be doing brakes way sooner than most. Especially if it's a year where I'm towing trailers amd gear to job sites. Fleet veichles, taxis, ubers, delivery veichles, rentals. Those rack up km quick. Compared to a daily driver that goes 20km to work and back... or a summer roadster.
