yeah... i got a 'careless driving ticket' for spinning my tires IN WATER.

:|

i actually went to court for it today. i didn't get off of it.

it's ridiculous when you get a ticket for not having TCS

but i think i have abs? i'm not sure.

i'll have to test it out tomorrow >

From what I've noticed in my 2004 3.9L... is that the TC is built into the PCM... Cause I can enable and disable it with my tuner - and ther IS a difference lol... Hard shift at 50... broke loose in an auto lolz.... scared the ever-living-sh*t out of me...

So I think our sixers "have" TC always on... It's the man's way of keeping us sixers down!!! REVOLT REVOLT!!! But like I said... with a tuner I was able to turn TC "off" and got a rid of the CONSTANT peg leg... haha

traction control has nothing to do with the one tire fire

I like my TC... it's probably the difference between life and death... ohhhh soooo dramatic... haha

Nah - TC has it's use, and I turn it back on when I'll just be driving normally, which is basically like... once a week lol

I have no traction control, no ABS, no strability control, no extra ****.

If you lock your brakes up without ABS, then learn how to use them right. If you can't drive without traction control, learn how to drive right.

HELP! New to forum and been looking for weeks without sucees for a V6 vert MANUAL with safety package: ABS /TRACTION. Should not be mission impossible, right? Well after several agonizing days of waiting and calling, one dealer, e-mailed me to say that they don't make V6 manuals with the ABS/traction control (safety package). WHAT GIVES??? Is this true? Does ANYONE have this combo on their car? I could swear the catalog and site both mentioned it as an AVAILABLE option.

Thanks!
