Default Customer says brakes feel "funny"....

This jeep came into my shop today, she said brakes felt "funny", thought it was worth a snapper, happy viewing.

I use to love driving trucks on dyno's and when i had to wait 20minutes fr it to stop or use the e-brake, it was great. I would tell them that they needed rear brakes, and they would say, "bullshit my truck stops on a dime." So I'm like I'm sure it does when you use your front brakes for 80% of your braking force, but if you ever want back on this dyno, you'll get your brakes done. I use to piss old guys off religiously with that one

When my Mom had her Jeep, she went 140,000+ mi before she needed new pads. The tire shop she took it to couldn't believe her.

Although, she did go through a tranny or two...
