Hi `Keane & `Mike (JG),
Why don't you like ABS ? Is your ABS working, all the sensor's checked & working properly...I like ABS & have tested them on slick roads & they really kept my ride going straight under hard braking....

Please let us know your reasons ?

Location of anti-lock brake components. See more pictures of brakes.



­Stopping a car in a hurry on a slippery road can be very challenging. Anti-lock braking systems (ABS) take a lot of the challenge out of this sometimes nerve-wracking event. In fact, on slippery surfaces, even professional drivers can't stop as quickly without ABS as an average driver can with ABS.
In this article, the last in a six-part series on brakes, we'll learn all about anti-lock braking systems -- why you need them, what's in them, how they work, some of the common types and some associated problems.

Good morning MCF'ers...another cold dreary gray depressing cold wet icy cold winter day here in St. Louis. Mike, did you get ice in Farmington last night? It was so bad here my dog slipped and fell going into the back yard this morning.

Jerry, good luck with the new carpet. You'll have to vacuum several times when they're finished. It's interesting to see how they put it down - one of those jobs I'd rather pay someone else to do.

Rick, have fun with your friends today. Could you drinbk a few Bud Lights for me????

Thanks `Mike, for your reply...What do you think of stability control on modern rides ? I know it seems like in our near future that vehicles will be driving themselves
Then all vehicle could just be a BedRoom or a Party Ride to your destination ~>
============================================
Hi `Keane, I probably won't be doing much 2night either since I will be working again 2nite also...EnJoy the time that you do have `off & please smile more ~> It's contagious....
Can I borrow a Smile
Thanks, pay back ~> lol
