We didn't blow anybody up BUT the mystery still remains. Nothing worked. Two weeks ago we had some new tires put on so on the off chance that somehow caused this we called the mechanic. He said no but to bring it on over and he'd run some tests. Fortunately he's only about 6 blocks away so I didn't have to worry about driving through any traffic. He spent an hour checking stuff and could not figure out why there's no lights back there. He said he would check with some people he knew to see if they had any ideas.

So, now we wait. It just astonishes me that there is a vehicle that runs just fine but it can't be used because no brake lights could cause anything from a ticket to death.
