Brakes

Changed front pads and rear shoes on my car today. 120 thousand miles were on this set of pads, according to the log. I find it difficult to believe, frankly. I must have forgotten to write down the pad change. The shoes had 160 thousand miles on them and looked as if they would carry another 100 thousand. I thought that the car was not likely to survive that long, and since I had the set, I changed them as well.

A fun experience, but on the whole I would not like to become a car mechanic by trade.
