    I think the 4000 cars on the boat were bound for Dundalk.

    When this happened to Mazda 15-20 years ago, they ended up shredding all the cars.

    Also, all 23 crew members were from South Korea. I imagine they were likely carrying KIA and Hyundais.

    We get about 90k on average on a set. As long as your alignment is good and you keep them above 120 you shouldn't have any issues with them

    alignment is/was good. was talking to a driver from VAT about the same wear pattern on his truck bc it was the same as mine and he said they have over ten trucks doing the same. I always keep pressure at 130. the continentals have 30k on them and look new still. definitely a better steer in my opinion with a higher speed rating

    I heard on the news today that when they found those guys they had been trapped 30 hours and temps in that tin can were at times up around 150 degrees. First thing they did when they found them was request tools and light to go save another guy who was trapped behind blast proof glass. They climbed up the pipework and attempted to break the glass. They couldn’t but the crew that got them out came in with a diamond tip drill and got the other guy out. Gotta hand it to the crew that the first thing they did after being saved themselves was to try to save another guy.
