I dont like ABS ... i know its been proven to brake faster and safer but ive been really close to plenty of accidents and as long as you dont panic (i dont) you dont need abs.. Plus some people dont know the pulsing feeling it give and thinks something wrong and they left off the brakes

I heard that abs brakes actually way slower than what you can do without abs. My dad hates abs, he says he'd rather tab his brake a few times with more control.

i never tryed an ABS equippted car before but i rather have the extra safty by knowing my wheels will not lock.

i only locked my brakes few times but that was under some serious circumstances plus we rarly have rain and no snow whatsoever so ABS for me is not a "must have" after all.

Deer's are trouble, but they are nothing compared to a MOOSE!
They are like hiting a break wall. You hit them, car is totaled. Then they just snort at you an walk away.

My friend had a Ford F150 back in high school, his front end was crushed like it was tin foil. His legs broken and face allbruised. And the moose walked away.

ABS > Normal Power Brakes.

No doubt about it. My Lanos has ABS and I would never get a car without it. I have also driven cars without ABS. If you are in the rain and have to make an accident avoiding stop, ABS is uber surefooted, non- ABS, you will go into a skid, not a long one, but enough to be tragic.
