    Yea one of my cats got a small one the other day. Only entry point I could think of is where I drilled 3 holes for electrical to the garage. They are pretty much on the ground as it went into the basement easy that way. Well I never sealed them. Bought a can of anti rodent spray foam and filled them up. Swear I could smell mouse pee around on of the entry holes. :puke:

    That's the common method up here. Parking brake almost NEVER set ... has to do with pads/shoes freezing to discs/drums in Winter ... not sure that's still true with modern materials, but still seems a wise ounce of prevention. :thumbsup:

    I've felt that on my 2021 auto. Rained the night before coming home and I set the brake. Next day it made a nice pop. Haven't experienced that yet with the 2022 for some odd reason under the same conditions. o_O

    I had to get the 2014 I briefly had in 4LO one time to break the parking brake free. That made one helluva bang!

    I did it once in October out at cabin ... wasn't quite freezing / no snow yet; but after crossing creek. Temps mid 30°s probably.

    I just lucked out it clicked right into 4WD and then I was able to get it in low. That 4WD system on that second gen wasn't as worn as my old 2009. That one could be tricky.
