    Damn, sucked back in again.
    I haven't driven any of these recalled Toyotas, well, not hard enough 
to use ABS, anyway... so does Toyota have a new, seamless-in-operation, 
ABS system?
    If not, shouldn't we have reports from drivers, who claim to be 
standing on the brakes during these events, that felt the ABS-activation 
pedal feedback?  When you stand on ABS brakes, it's hard not to notice. 
Can anyone find a report of an alleged UA crash where the driver activated 
ABS?  There should be hundreds.
