>From soggy Los Angeles, report on wet brakes.
   YoW !! Went thru several hub deep lakes in the last few days,
and when the DAK brakes get wet, it takes a lot to dry them back out.
Just kept pushing, and the truck kept rolling. I expect the
rear drums to get wet, but was suprised the front disks did not
recover quickly. Took several miles of dry driveing and stopping
to get back to normal. Big difference from my Oldsmobile with
front disk/rear drum.
