Practice makes perfect.....post on....
that is so cool! does your mom think so too?
A+++ thanks!
The students experienced trauma? I’d like to see them prove that in court.
I forgot to mention, if you like the smell of pine so much you can always get some Pine Sol and scrub the floors. LOL
On a tire? Who offers that? He did put the spare on himself this time since the rim was okay.
no need you have jagoffs willing to just take their word for it. soooooo stoooooopid.
They said the warranty didn’t cover that kind of accidental damage. It’s been a rough year for us, all the way around. Lots of huge expenses and one less income.
When you buy a tire they offer hazard insurance. Pro-rated based on miles, of course. My wife has had a tire replaced when it had a screw lodged in it. Because of the pro-rating it didn’t cover the entire cost of new, but a good portion of it.
Be glad that you weren’t on the hook for 4 new tires. If the tires were older, it’s not a good idea to replace only one. And with an AWD/4WD vehicle it can throw off the entire system if the tires have different radii. It would think the tire was slipping relative to the others, or vice versa.
We just replaced all 4 of them in late October and they didn’t offer hazard insurance.
Probably wouldn’t cover running into a curb anyway.
Oh yes, everyone does. He looked so much like his Father when he was a toddler, but in the last 6 years or so he has just changed. He is built more like my Dad - taller, longer legs than my husband and his hands look just like my Dads - every time I look at my son’s hands I can remember holding my Daddy’s hand when I was little. He wears his hair much shorter than my Father did but the face is there - and the smile, oh my, it makes my heart melt - he has my Dad’s smile. He truly is a gift to me.
Haha - oh so true because it is EXACTLY the same! lol
I didn’t even buy any sort of hazard insurance but Sams gave me a credit on a tire we had to replace because of a screw because the tire was so new and couldn’t be repaired.
Democrats are all pouting-
Voters spoiled their fun
Now their phony bonhomie
Is just all over and done
They snap at one another
Over opportunities blown-
And like true Clintonistas
They begin to eat their own
That is their true persona,
And keeps them easy to see-
Fewer folks believe the lies
When they’re acting naturally...
It is 58 and partly cloudy-rain is predicted by Thursday, but no cold from the frozen North for awhile...
grey and very chilly here today! A++++
I’ve always been offered the road hazard thing for a couple dollars per tire when I buy tires for a 4x4-it was more for regular car tires, but since I’ve been driving a 4x4 again, we are back to a few dollars. I’m going to guess that these all-terrain tires for pickup trucks and SUVs are not so delicate as car tires...
Thank you!
I am going to pay for it for all 4 tires now, if I can. This kid is not careful enough.
