THis vehicle does not have tracks, but is impressive nonetheless.

Because of where it was dripping from. Noty even close to brake system, and I
had already checked the brake system and found nothing leaking (at the wheels).

With the recent discussion regarding DOT 4 brake fluid, and all the confusion
out there with the DOT 3/4 and synthetics, I decided to just buy a quart of
DOT 4 when I was at the dealership today.
Not bad, really, when you consider it's for sure the right stuff.
$13.20 for a quart.

Yeah, but around here it's near impossible to find DOT 4 at FLAPs. The only
straight DOT 4 brake fluid I've found around here is made by some company
called Ferodo and it's $17/liter. You have to go to a speed shop or
someplace like that for anything else. I figure $13/quart at the MB dealer

What we know is the 4 is different from 3, and that the 3/4 is called

THere was no such conclusion. Only anecdotal evidence that one brake
