    The abs on these trucks acts up when a squirrel farts on the road.
    Theres a couple writeups on abs kill switches. That way you can stop when you want instead of riding that buzzing, vibrating adult toy of a brake pedal right into a wall because a pebble was in the road and made the abs have a seizure.

    Yeah. Heard about that. In the snow it's down right scary!

    Sometimes just a decent curved/banked offramp would send mine into a shitfit. Not anymore.
    No snow here, but ive def had the truck roll right along as the pedal was to the floor in mud or dirt while at slow speed even.

    Thanks for the feedback. A ton of great information. I was mainly just wanting powder coated calipers, nothing crazy.
