    I don't know why the new cars and trucks have it. I mean if my truck comes with 4wd, why the need for traction control. Like today, it was raining hard. I go to get out of a staples and turn right. I slowly push the gas, the back wheels lock up, tons of noise and flashing lights on the dash and I almost do a 180 lol. Why can't I just drive the truck normally lol

    All that traction stuff was designed for women. Cause with out it they would be dead like why do we have AC? To keep them cool in the summer, why do we have mirrors? So they can out make-up on! Power steering because most are not strong, along with other power options. The automatic transmission was made for women.

    Anyone watch the show beyond scared straight on a&e. it's super good. They take bad teens and put them in jail. Then the punks in there yell and scream and toughen them up so the kids act better and get there life in line. So good.

    I love it when I am on the road most of the time. I find myself using my kill switch in the snow because I'd rather control a slide than have my truck kill the throttle. I like atrac but I also like the spinning-tire method of wheelin.

    I have absolutly no problem with the electronics at all. Mine only works when it should and it all shuts off in 4low. I don't see what anybody's problem is with it.

    My old car (Olds Achieva) had it and it was fine by me..except the occasional time I wanted to spin the tires. Oh wait, that switch right over there turns it off!
