Toneh what's going on with the big beast?
Nuttin". Still running, although--when it rains alot, it floods around here, so I did drive through some big ass puddles to wash the salt off underneath. Does that count as a lazy man's detail? One puddle was so deep it splashed over the top of the hood!

Not really, just a dusting 2 times, and it melts quick. We've been super lucky--so far. Dodged a big storm last week. How about you? Snow yet?
Hell no. Coldest it's been here is 29 and all I've dealt with is rain. Also do you have any idea why my ABS and E-Brake lights would come on randomly? Nothing bad is happening it's just a peace of mind thing and I'm always more nervous when they come on

Maybe a hub is going bad? Just curious--how's your rear brake lines? I think you said they were changed. I've also heard the abs units tend to go bad, but I don't know if that would also set your e brake light.
BTW--It was 5 degrees the other night, and 53 degrees last night!

Looks like Alabama isn't the only one with bipolar ass weather! And no the lines themselves weren't changed, I changed rotors and pads all the way around and it doesn't ride odd so a hub couldn't be going bad could it?

When mine was going bad I heard some crunching/grinding and felt a small vibration in the steering wheel--but I'm not a mechanic so it was just a guess. Do you have a scanner that can read abs codes?

Yes and I've already gotten the code once I just don't remember what it was
