<![CDATA[no brake lights]]>so i was driving up north today for a job interview.. and i happened to get behind 2 different trucks that didnt have working brake lights. since it was so slippery i almost rear ended both of them because i couldnt tell they were braking until i was almost right on them. is it some new 'thing' where if you disconnect your brake lights youre cool? or are there actually that many people in town that have lights that dont work?

Glad your ok. No accident!

Didnt you see them slowing down? forget the brake lights. Dont take this the wrong way. Doesnt seem like your were paying attention and your were following to close. Just like a said in the other thread. It's winter time leave some distance atleast 2-3 cars for stopping. I kinda sound like a soccer dad. But im in my early 20's!

Ive actually never seen a chevy like that have both of them lights on.

The other prob my dad had w/ his chevy was the tranny. He went thru 3 in 2 years hauling a 6 cow stock trailer. Since he moved to Ford, he has a bigger (not sure of the capacity, but 27') stock trailer and the tranny is running perfect. I'm more of a GM guy myself, but ford makes a great pickup for hauling/towing. Guess that's why they are the #1 selling pickup for the last several years.

They really are like rocks...big piles of dense matter recycled into something useful.
