  123,000 miles on a set of brakes?  Very good, must be a lot of highway miles with no stops.  But then that's a lot of miles and you waited too long and you're going to have to buy new rotors.

  I hope not. :spooked:  $$$$$$$$$$$$$$

And it is the rear rotors - thanks to GM's rusting rotor syndrome. Otherwise I'd still be going. . .

  Well, there is some good news.  GM cars and trucks don't rust like the use too.   :yes: :biggrin:

I got brakes front and rear, including new rotors all the way around, new calipers in the rear, all for 700 bucks, including labor!  :yes:

(And I didn't have do anything other than go buy the parts.).

  Yep, that's one job no one wants to do without receiving money to do it.

  I would say you got more than your money worth out of those brakes.  I figure it cost you around .000643 cents per mile for the 126,000 brakes.   :yes: :wink:

Well Well!! It is 2012.  and way past my 7pm bedtime. 
It's always darkest before the dawn.  So if you're going to steal your neighbor's newspaper, that's the time to do it.

Dear Charmin:

Do we really need commercials about dingleberries?

The commercial that I despise is the Doritos commercial where one guy is stalking another guy to get his Doritos. Apparently the guy with the chips has eaten them all and tells him as much. So he grabs the chips guy's hand and sucks the cheese off his finger. ;D

Oh and thinking of disgusting, have you seen the corndog Tums commercial? :biggrin:

  What we need now is gas lights, gas refrigerator and a gas television.  We had found gas line in the ceiling of my dad's old house for gas lights.  But back then the house was heated with coal.   :smile:
