Actually what's really happening here is a gas-saving technique I call "The Fake Break". Works like a charm

Sure, as long as you aren't the guy doing the towing...

Had my turbo for 18,000 miles and the only problem was I NEED a bigger engine!
So that's where it is right now, other than that, busted tranny and worn tires. It's a GREAT DD truck!! haha

ive put about 3k miles so far. I dont daily the truck though cause of gas prices. 12 mpg isnt too good when i have to put 93 in it. only major problems im having are plug wires burnt(i relocated them, so not a problem anymore, thankfully) and my slave cylinder just started leaking. Other than that i change the oil often, and am always on the laptop

I might have raced while towing The little ricer didn't get it, I had to out run him three different times while draging my boat...

Dude, you need to not drive that anymore without replacing the slave. I had a leaky slave an it ruined a perfectly good clutch.
