I don't know why there is so much interest in disc brakes. I have drums all around and it stops just fine. At one time I thought I would like adding a booster, but now I have grown to like manual drum brakes. I drive both an SUV with power disc brakes and the Chevy truck with manual drum brakes. When I first got the Chevy truck, I felt the difference between the two. But now that I'm used to it, I don't notice the difference any more. I don't think I would bother with plain disc brakes. I reserve the right to change my tune, but for now I'm happy. If I were doing an upgrade it would be specifically to get anti-lock brakes. Anti-lock is a significant technical improvement.
