    Sounds like either the LED is overheating, or the driver went bad.

    This truck is really getting on my nerves this winter. This is now the 2nd day in a row the e-brake froze. I did a few tricks I saw on here as far as pulling the brake lines. I ended up putting it in low range and locking the rear differential to get it to budge. I probably took 20,000 miles off my clutch in the process. I will no longer be using my emergency brake wherever I can avoid it. The problem is my work is on a hill. I wonder if I shouldn't buy some wheel chocks.

    This is independent of the stupid clunk I cannot seem to find that is highlighted by the fact almost every single road I take to work has been under construction for the better part of the last two years.

    My kneejerk is LCAs / cam bolts. I can feel it in my floor boards. However, I've rechecked every bolt on the front suspension and set it to factory torque (and even a bit above on the LCA cams) and nothing's changed. I'm thinking in the spring of loosening / tightening everything again. Then I'm going to go after the body mounts. It just makes me feel like crap since I'm a crazy perfectionist and I messed with the front suspension.

    It shouldn’t be bad on a Saturday. At least you won’t be dealing with the regular rush. The areas around South Station can be pretty desolate on the weekends.
    I had the e brake freeze on me once when I had a manual, never used it again. I always just left it in gear and never had an issue.

    This froze up 2x last year and has done it 3x this year. This is the only manual I've owned (of 5) that's ever froze on me. Granted the STi and Vette were rear disc, but my Accord and Xtracab were drum.

    I had 2 Ford Rangers in high school and college and the ebrake only froze once on the second one. First one never had an issue and it took 2 years for the second one to have an issue. After that, I never used the e brake again.

    I found an exact measurement fireplace grate for my woodstove. I found it in Merrimack New Hampshire at a place called All Basics Stove Shop.

    Now I have a question about my stove. The stove came with my house and it was not lined with bricks on the bottom. Should I line the bottom of that stove with those bricks, Or at least enough just to fit the grate on?
