3 Different Parking Brakes

Here's an example of how technology has changed between 2000s and the present day -
the parking brakes on my vehicles.

Here’s something interesting I noticed: I have 3 different parking brakes in my vehicles. An electronic brake in my 2018 Jeep Compass, a hand brake in my 2004 Oldsmobile Bravada, and a foot-pedal style brake in my 2008 Saturn Aura. The biggest adjustment switching between the cars isn’t the fact that some are bigger or smaller, but I’ve always felt that remembering that the older cars don’t have all of the modern technology of the Jeep (like push-button start and smart entry) is the biggest learning curve.
