I live in Four Corners Area of Colorado. Although the Winters aren't near as severe as the New Yorkers, we do get our share of below freezing temps particularly over night and plenty of snow. Pequod, my 2015 F56 (Volcanic Orange!) is a manual 6 speed. Adopted in July. I am of the habit of selecting 1st gear and setting the parking brake whenever I park. My husband says..."Kat don't be setting the parking brake in the Winter because, it's possible if it has brake shoes in a housing and if snow or slush get inside the housing when you're driving about, that (temperatures allowing) it will freeze the brake shoes to the drum housing."
So, anyone out there with more knowledge of the brake system of the F56 please help me out here. What's been your experience and I welcome any suggestions.
Thank you
