Stopped in my driveway to get newspaper and mail. I got back into the truck and applied the brake to shift into drive. The brake pedal went to the floor. I coasted up the driveway and was able to stop. When i got out of the truck there was a trail of brake fluid. The leak was coming from under the driver's seat area, where the brake line attached to the abs pump. My mechanic had to replace all of the brake lines. *jb
