honestly im tickled pink mine DOESNT have ABS....and so long as your not just jambng on the brakes works great in the snow and ice...TIRES ARE EVERYTHING!
Statistically ABS Has made no difference in the number of accidents or fatalities.

In fact some studies indicate those things go up because people are overconfident and drive faster than they should. They think ABS will save them.

YUP ditto for all the other fancy "anti-insert object here"

i adore the fact the yaris ive got doesnt have ABS..and curse the ABS thats on the explorer that is VERY effective at trying to put you in a ditch in gavel and snow...the f350 SD i used for a many years couldnt be trusted when the weather turned, between the abs and the traction control it was nothing but a ditch finder...meanwhile my 89 caravan was a rented mule that could be driven HARD without a care in the world..no abs
