Lucky you. I had some a$$hole cut me off pretty bad, I was doing at least 60. Slammed on my brakes and the rear line burst. I still don't know how I didn't hit him. Good thing I didn't or I'd be in jail right now--for killing him with my bare hands! Just saying....
Yea mine burst at a stoplight when I pushed on the brake hard when I leaned over to adjust my tow mirror. Next time I stopped I knew something was wrong with all this extra pedal travel. Pulled into the nearest mall and found a puddle right by the ABS module.

Very glad I didn't need to make any emergency maneuvers since I was also doing ~55-60.

Mine broke in the same area. Super common issue with trucks that drive on salty winter roads.

Another NC local here too. Durham here
Yeah being from NC has it’s pros and cons. We have no lift height laws, headlight laws are barely enforced, cops don’t bother you for tint most the time, and fender flares or mud flaps aren’t even a topic. If my vehicle throws stuff up on other peoples cars they should be following so close.

Oh jeez I know what that feeling is like. My brakes happened to work just fine, but I had the whole family in the caddy and while turning left on a green light some female came ****** blazing right through the intersection not paying attention at all. She could have tboned us and killed my wife and children or something, thankfully my brakes work great and the people behind us were able to stop in time as well or I would have gone berserk. Shit like that reminds me why we drive bigass vehicles and why I keep up on the maintenance.

My wife was hit in our in old yukon denali xl which was totalled with my kids in the car. The truck kept them safe. The cops kept his worthless ass safe since they beat me to the scene... (he had no license or registration and crossed several lanes of traffic to collide with my wifes vehicle. Then I overheard him yelling at her trying to place blame on her while I was on the phone)

People are just plain stupid sometimes. I remember when you posted about your wife's accident. Thank God everyone was/is ok. If it was me, I don't know if I would've let the cops stop me. I hope to never find out tho.

Well worked on the denali this morning bought the new starter put back and spark plug that was out idk why and the truck started right up. Except i have a white smoke coming out the exhaust and the truck does not over heat even with the a/c on. And i also have white smoke in the engine bay.

I'm in the process of redoing my wheels. I hate chrome but I couldn't find a place local that was willing to sandblast/powdercoat my chrome wheels. So I took an angle grinder and a shitload of sandpaper to them and I have paint on 2 wheels so far working on the 3rd.... Should come out good lol

I drove it to work and now I’m about to drive it to the FedEx pick up location and get my TruCool 40K! And then home. Probably won’t get it installed for a week or so got a bunch of “life” stuff to do first.
