I guess it's strange, but you know what I miss?

I miss the non-radial tires on tractor trailers singing as they go down the highway.

Bias-ply tires - I remember them well. I remember “the caucuses of retreads” which littered the “hotter than hell” roadways in the late afternoons. (And the sound of a blowout, the pitter patter of rubber beating against the wheel well, and the sound of rubber hitting the road in the distance)

Thanks for the memories and have a great day.
