what are some of your thoughts about the new larger brakes on the 3rd gen trucks<br><br>do you think they are better than second gen trucks<br><br>mine seem to be weak when they i first start out in morning but as they are used a couple of times they seem to get better<br><br>mine dont seem to be any better than my 02 was and just wondering if i have a problem ???<br><br>

They are sure better than the brakes on my 97 which were virtually useless. 2003 brakes are a huge improvement.<br><br>Casey

I'm supprised how fast they will stop a 6800lb truck. I had a '98 1500 QC and these brakes are deffinitely better than the '98's.

Mine are also a huge improvement over my &quot;old&quot; '01 2500 eth/dee.<br><br> CC.

Compared to my 95's the brakes are outstanding. Much harder pedal, no pull, 4 wheel anti-lock. Superior.

Just traded off my '99 QC 2500 4x4 for an '03 QC 2500 4x4,<br>This truck is FAR SUPERIOR to my other in braking, pulling and everything else. I traded and no looking back!<br><br>Rocketman

OUTSTANDING BRAKES! This is one aspect of my truck which impressed me imediately. I am of the opinion that if you didn't notice how great the brakes were, then perhaps you do have a problem. Maybe you oughta drive one at the dealers and make a little comparison.<br><br>Here's hoping you don't have any problems.<br><br> [undecided]

Just get goin about 40 mph and whale on the brakes once that will break them in!

I thought my 01.5 2500 had outstanding brakes. The 03 is even better.
