    Thanks :), :salute: To ease your mind, she only rides in it on our dirt roads, max 15 mph, no traffic, either back and forth to the bus stop or my neighbors house.
    Yes it's a foot pedal e-brake. I put ~200K miles in that rig (WWW another ~250K), I know the sound of the clunk when releasing the e-brake after all those miles, and it's been different recently. I'll try it!!
    Jiggle the e-brake pedal, not the brake pedal, correct? Woops, everything in that trusty old rig has seen better days and now wiggles :rofl: :lol:, thanks!

    Somehow since I moved into the Duramax in 2012 while the Blazer pretty much sat idle til a year of so ago, along with moving to a home 1/2 the size, all the Blazer bottles are gone, oil, brake, power steering.

    Well, sorry for the anticlimactic answer, WWW staggered in about 6pm, something hit him around 3pm, so he did not stop at an auto parts store understandably. Funky frequent cough and 102.5*, are you kidding me? The flu in June with a flu shot!?! Darn supposed to be a gorgeous weekend.

    Yeah, vehicles don't take well to sitting still for long.

    Hope WWW gets feeling better.

    Well you're missing some skanky weather, humid. Some big stumps got dumped in front of the oak at the dump. I'll take a picture this afternoon. I watched them for awhile trying to lever the stumps off a UHaul flatbed with 2x4s. I guess the truck bed didn't tilt.

    Congrats to you and your lady.

    You do realize that kids make you old, right.

    Heck, even by association, my best friend's daughter is going to Prom tonight.

    Now I feel old.:hair::doh:

    My post was not meant to be taken any other way than in jest.

    Me and my first wife had no pregnancies come to fruition, and Chazsbetterhalf had three sons and no inclination for more.

    You were blessed with a child later in life.

    It was more of a post regarding the fact that life seems WAY shorter when looking in the rearview mirror.

    Holy Cow, NO Offense taken :) It was meant to agree with you. I could have been more descript, yes, kids do age us :rofl: :lol: I'm sorry about your first wife, I've been there and it's so very difficult to reconcile in one's mind. Trust me, I know.

    Well that is one of the flaws of typing, it doesn't give nuance.

    I thought you were upset from my statement due to your difficulties, and finally success, later in your life than you intended.

    As to me and my first, thx for the sentiment, but I have long ago come to believe it was in the best interest of all involved, or, most importantly those that would have been involved.

    We couldn't make it together, the kids would have had to deal with too much unnecessary BS.

    It was how it needed to be.:zip:
