Interceptor

Drove over to the storage building at the fairgrounds this morning to get the boat out of winter storage. Took a number of back forth manuvers to clear other boats and the door opening but finally got clear of the building and out into daylight. Went to stop and connect the trailer harness for light/brakes. That's when the brake pedal went to the floor followed by a steam cloud of brake fluid and puddle. Major brake failure one week after replacing all the calipers and rotors with new equipment ! Think a line ruptured due to corrision.
So the truck went off on a flatbed,the boat sits at the fairgrounds and I'm a sad puppy.

Let me guess a Chevy or GMC?
I blew one 2yrs ago. Apparently it is a common thing... To common.

Very common on the Chevrolets/GMCs of the 1990s and up. I took my lowrider, never driven, Tahoe in for inspection. I told them they didn't have to lift it, it had not been driven more than a few hundred miles since last inspection.

I'm glad they insisted. Found a cracked brake line inside the frame rail on the way to the rear axle.
I'd have found it...
...3/4 of the way into my accident.
