Hawk Superduty Pads are about the best you can buy and I strongly recommend these. http://www.buybrakes.com/hawk/

I put on a set of EBC 6000 pads about 5 months ago and have been extremely pleased with them. I bought them from tirerack.com for about $65, which I think is a fairly standard price for pads. There are quite a few people on this site who swear by Hawk ceramic, but I opted not to get them because I've known a handful of guys who have experienced rotor warpage issues when switching from semi-metallic to cceramic. I also have noticed almost no dusting with the EBC's, which can be a big problem with metallic pads. The OEM Motorcraft pads are also fine in my opinion, however some people complain about them dusting excessively. I didn't notice this when I had stock pads though.

I'm running Axxis MetalMasters now (had been with Hawk HPS for a few years), they seem comparable to the Hawks. I'm pleased with them.
