As the result of my posting and a copy sent to the dealer, the service mgr (Kevin) called me this morning (Memorial Day) and stated that he had checked the factory pads and found the fronts @ 10mm and the the rears 'just under 8.' Nissan recommends NOT allowing the pads to get below 2-3mm as this can endanger the rotors and the pads themselves have less friction. Unfortunately, he said my previous stated scenario is fairly common in some models and the "2 fts for 1 rear" pads replacements days are probably no longer in affect considering driving habits, etc. Also, my analysis on $$$ spent on the 30-60-90k services is probably true. The service mgr could not have been nicer. I guess I'll continue to drive the 150 mile round trip to have my major services done at that dealership. Hope this information helps others.
