Bought those expensive ceramic pads for my F-150 and now I'm kicking myself
I spent $120 on fancy ceramic brake pads for my 2010 F-150 thinking they'd be quieter and last longer. Three months in and they squeal like a stuck pig every morning until the rotors warm up. My buddy laughed and said I should have just stuck with the $40 semi-metallics I always used. Anyone else had luck getting ceramic pads to shut up after the break-in period?

Man those ceramic pads are the worst investment I ever made on my truck too. Mine squealed for almost 6 months before I finally gave up and swapped back to the cheap ones.

My buddy Mike slapped ceramics on his F150 and spent 8 months listening to that godawful squeal every time he hit his brakes. Swore he'd never touch them again and went back to semi-metallics.
