If they're air brakes be ready for some exciting characteristics if you do engage the ABS. Because there's a bit of a delay in the air canisters engaging/disengaging our first ABS buses were a handful in snow and ice behaving like the ABS module was actually an Ouija board.
In reply to 1988RedT2 :
I seem to remember GM making a big deal about putting ABS in every car in the mid 90s as well. I can also see why they would have stopped shortly thereafter. My brother had a 95 Cavalier and like Patrick said, it wasn't better it just allowed you to drive to a different accident then you originally would have. My 99 did not have ABS and while not being a better car, it drove much better in bad weather. The cheap ABS seemed very sensitive to tire choice so my brother had the cheapest car possible on the most expensive tires available so it would stop.
