Flat Tire
Thu Apr 10 2025

The other day i was going to meet my friends for a walk and by truck,hd a flat tire it was right rear i aired it up and we went for our walk when i got home i jacked it up and put a jack stand under the axle so if all the air leked out the bead would not break and i could air it up and get to the tire shop. I had planned on getting new tires this fall before winter i figured the tires, getting low on tread, would last the summer, the more i thought about it i figured with President Trumps new tarrifs the price of tires will no doubt go up so i decided to go ahead and get the tires now, wow are the already expensive $214.00 each that was painfull but it had to be done i had the money so i now have a new set of tires no more flats.

Crappy day out been raining off and on all day i started heater in garage but never got back out there might go out here in a bit to get some stuff done on my car.

Had to take Mom down to St Margarets hospital Tuesday morning she needed blood transfusion that went well we always have an early appointment and i get breakfast there they have a really good cafeteria there.

    Sorry you had to do that before you were really ready. But it's so nice to know you have good tires under you on the road. I had some work done on the Cube yesterday. I'm trying really hard to keep her running smoothly as long as possible!!!

    Glad to hear that you were able to get new tires. Yikes on the price, though. Over $200? Expensive!!
