Be Safe! and keep an eye out for a loose spare..
I always take the tire off and throw it in the bed anyway. I don’t want to crawl under the truck in the mud before I even get stated changing a tire.
Once was enough to teach me.
As a former NYer now in AZ who has seen more than his share of vehicles rot away, I am stuned to my Beeber that a 12 year old ANYTHING is still on the road up there and not a brown pile in the snow, considering the tin foil they make new vehicles with.
My last project, a 79 F250 sat fully sanded to the metal outside for 2 months before I got back to it.
Not a speck of rust. I love AZ ;)
They announced early in the week that they have to recall all their ugly Prius lib jalopies because of faulty steering.
I’ve never liked Toyotas. Nothing specific, they just don’t feel right to me. But I bought a RAV4 for my wife. I figured it’s her car, I don’t have to drive it. And the Toyota reputation for quality sounded good. But it’s had 3 recalls and one $600 repair that should have been a recall. Don’t think I’ll be getting another Toyota anytime soon.
