Jerrod,
They can be driven without Brake vacuum but it's difficult , My Legs are
in good shape from years of running.
My first trip in my Coach was a trip to Bean Station.
I just thought the Brakes required a lot of force.
I thought, when I get home ,I've got to make the Breaking better ,
When I got Home ,I found the booster Hose, had a major leak.
I should have fixed it at Bean Station or before.

My system is the original design with good pads that are in adjustment.

I am guessing that I put around 300 Lbs on the pedal for decent response
when I did my test. If you're not capable of that then you would likely
have a different experience.
