Still riding around with non-power, all drum brakes ?

With all the "flack" about a truck having to be BONE STOCK to be stock. How many of you drive your long wheelbase truck REGULARLY with a V8 and non-power, drum brakes ? I realize the six's would probably stop a little better with them, but my LWB 70 C-10 350CID - 350Transmission - didn't stop well at all, even with new parts and turned drums. It took two men and a boy pushing the pedal to get it to stop one time, going down a steep hill when a car pulled out in front of me. I'm curious to know if there are still a lot of us driving around this way.
