No, not too unusual. But he the guy I was responding to said the Big 3 are making low quality vehicles, so I just wanted to let him know what my experience has been.
The originals from the factory were Bridgestones, and they lasted about 130,000 and they weren't completely shot, but with the distances I travel I didn't want to go any further on them. Now I've got Goodyear All-Terrains and they're about due to be replaced. Someone told me Chevy changed the suspension to a "6 point", and that seems to help the brakes and tires last longer. Don't know much about that. I know the guys driving the Dodge Sprinters get almost 200,000 miles out of their tires.
A lot of the other guys that have the same van, or the 1 ton, seem to have tranny problems by now, or rear end. I'm surprised with all the towing I do that I haven't yet. I think the Lucas helps a lot.
