    I friggen' HATE ABS!! ABS is worthless! I've just about put my truck in the ditch (or worse) more times with ABS than any other single cause. I know I can stop better than ABS does! Then again, I learned how to drive...and didn't need nanny state big brother trying to drive for me!




    WTH:About put yourself in a ditch more times? And LEARNED how to drive?????

    I think I want you to learn how to drive alot better before you come near me with a car................And not just my opinion, JUST SAYING

    looks like the tests are inconclusive. Both ABS and regular produced the same result. Both vehicles are in the water.

    I'm talkin' about on ice, oaks! Sliding, when I ordinarily wouldn't have been (shouldn't have been) sliding with normal brakes...just saying'.





    Yes, even on ice, I've been driving on ice for some 60 years with and without ABS, I only once almost ditched my vehicle because of ice or slick roads... You on the other hand claim repeatably finding yourself almost ditching your vehicle because of ice or slick roads..... I learned how to drive on ice with my first and only near ditching along time ago... As where according to you, haven't as of yet by saying how you repeatably finding yourself not being able to handle driving on ice because you almost ditched your vehicle on more than several occasions because of ice or slick roads... I still stand by my statement, "I think I want you to learn how to drive alot better before you come near me with a car................And not just my opinion, JUST SAYING" yet again

    Similar reaction by me until I re-learned to drive with ABS.

    Once you learn to trust ABS (which you eventually will have to do) your vehicle will stop better with it than without it, regardless of how good you think you are.

    Commit to the brakes and you will be fine. Try to pump them with ABS, or be timid about how much pressure you apply, and you are screwed.
    Freedom and a submissive populace cannot co-exist.

    ABS - One more thing to go wrong and pay through the * to get fixed! [;)]

    Great Picture!! [:D][:D]
    It's being willing. I found out early that most men, regardless of cause or need, aren't willing. They blink an eye or draw a breath before they pull the trigger. I won't. ~ J.B. Books

    Just me ABS and Ice are great. Truck stops fast and in a straight line. So just maybe you do not know how to drive or you neet to work on your brakes.
