Not many people have the experience, or even posses the instinct, on how to control a vehicle with one, two, or all four wheels locked up.
If you know how to control a vehicle in a slide, you have the advantage.
The ABS system will detect a locked wheel situation and respond accordingly by “pulsating” the brake system hydraulic pressure. This pressure “pulsating” effect, allows the wheels to turn briefly before reapplying pressure again. This happens very fast and can give the sensation that the brakes have failed. When a person first experiences the ABS action, they normally respond by releasing the brake pedal, therefore adding stopping distance to the already panic maneuver.
In summary, you may be able to drive without ABS for many years and never have a need for the system, however, you may experience the benefit tomorrow. The choice is yours; if you feel like you can handle a car in a panic situation, then go for it. Yes, you can disable the system by pulling the fuses to the ABS controller & modulator (EBCM). IIRC, you may have two fuses that need to be removed in order to completely disable the system. (One under the dash and one in the fuse/relay panel under the hood)
