I respect everybody's wishes and believe you should get what you desire. Personally I think disc brakes are just a money pit. In almost 50 years I've never had a brake failure or wasn't able to stop in time due to it being a manual drum brake set up. At least one media article said front drum brakes are a death trap but well you know the media--I just kept scrolling. I don't live near or drive on hilly 6 % or higher grade roads so that's a non-issue. As for wanting to drive interstates, well that's your choice but I'd never take my classic car or even my 4600 pound 78 F-150 4 x 4 on those roads which your putting your life on the line. The interstates today are handling above capacity traffic with packs of tractor trailers, frequent construction zones that often put traffic to a a stop and lets not forget road rage where they all shoot first and ask questions later.
