tuesday was rainy and foggy here in MD. I was on my way home from work and a bald guy in a ford ranger decides to turn into the gas station like 15 feet in front of me. i locked the brakes and tried to avoid him but to no avail i T-boned him and then bounced off the curb Im just glad the turbo was off. sorry my pics are huge update page 2

Damage doesnt look too bad for hitting a ranger. I thought it might have been a total loss. Hope he had insurance. GL with rebuild

While I will probably get flack from your purists on here

I personally like the ABS on my 00 SiR. Combined with 4 wheel Discs and good tires my car stops really quick.

In fact the other day a dog ran out in front me when i was doing 60 KM/H (37 MPH)

I just laid into the brakes and the old pedal vibrated like crazy but I stopped quick enough not to hit it.

I find I am able to mash the pedal to the floor and steer around things with ABS.

Well go ahead and flame away you people who hate ABS.

ABS is great for daily driving and people who dont know how to stop properly... its just better to not have ABS when doing track and hard driving (assuming you know what you're doing)
