Driving on Grand River i come up to a light in my ranger, go for the brakes, pedal goes to the floor, luckily i didn't soar throught the light, thanks to the dual master cylinder but the rear brakeline has rotted through and was squirting brake fluid like a super soaker. Just not a good night for me, just had to vent.

Well the DMC allows for a back-up, which i sure appreciate now, and i was engine braking the whole way back, and the parking brake doesn't handle driving, jsut what it's made to do, park.
