ebrake frozen
so for the first time ever in my life I think I experienced my e-brakes to be frozen. I live in Georgia and this morning it was 11 degrees. not common for a winter around here. must have had some moisture when I parked last night and pulled the e-brake. any ways I got in this morning to pull out the drive way and I stalled my car at the top of the drive way. im not concerned or anything. just thought id share, thought it was kinda funny. up north is this a common thing? it would be annoying if it happened every day. #southern problems

I've had an ebrake cable snap, but never had one freeze. I don't engage the ebrake with full force either, just enough to hold the car if on an incline, even less if on level surface. Leaving it in gear is a good idea. That was my only option in the camaro with the busted ebrake.
