Spent a nice day working around the farm. So quiet. Saw some deer and beautiful birds. The red headed woodpeckers are everywhere.

I hate the brakes on my truck. Found siezed drivers side rear. Fronts are warped too. I have such low miles on it I'm so upset.

All I've had to do is replace both rear calipers. So far I have somewhere between 40-50,000 on the front brakes/rotors with no problems. However, I do hate how it feels like my truck has brakes off a moped after driving new F150's

John, I have never heard of anyone having so much brake trouble. All the vehicles I have owned, all I ever had to do was change pads.

Looking at the 2014 Focus ST for after I graduate. ST1 base with the graphite wheels and red brake caliper option. Should be around 23-24k when I'm ready next spring. Leaning towards performance blue
