The ABS, it kicks in too soon. If it rains, I drive like a granny.

One good thing - I was talking to a guy I know who works at a trans shop, and he said not too many 4T65E'* come into the shop.

I have a younger sister who is always worried about the heat shields rattling out of place. :? That is a smaller fix than a flat tire.

But a collision is not a mechanical issue.

If it helps, look into getting your collision deductable lowered to $50 or whatever your policy allows. If you have a lot of mods, you may be at a loss.
That is why I do not dump a lot of unnecessary money into my car.
