Yes, gloss right over the fact that your insurance company quote, lol, contains a glaring and factually incorrect claim that it reduces engine wear in the very first paragraph. You uncritically accept it because it supports your equally incorrect opinion of how the parking brake system functions.


And you obviously have no clue how an emergency system works.


You are right, because they do not have one.

You ever wonder why the feds mandated a dual circuit hydraulic braking system?

Because the parking brake couldn't do the job. Half the hydraulic system still worked better than the parking brake.

Ever wonder why the owner's manual tells you to apply the service brakes before setting the parking brake? Because the parking brake cannot fully set the rear brakes all on it's own.

Just because you can hammer in a nail with Vice Grips doesn't make it a hammer.
