    We had a trailer tire blow out in Alabama last night. My driver went to I-20 TRAVEL CENTER exit 165. They told him they had used tires to come in, but when he got there all they said they had were brand new bridgestone steer tires. They ended up charging us $500 for one tire!!! The cashier was rude and ran our com chek through twice. They were sooooo rude!!

    Do you have a copy of the check and purchase receipt? There's nothing you can do about them being rude except be clever and wit up to putting them in their place but as for the over priced tire, and yes that is way to #### much, I would report it. That's highway robbery and it's illegal. Exit 165.... That wouldn't be Cuba, AL. would it? Been a while sense I've been over that way so I don't remember the exit number's.

    That dog I use in my avatar is supposedly an 11yo golden retriever mix, a "rescue" dog from the New Orleans area after Katrina. I quit OTR to work on the Gulf Coast for a year after Katrina. Purina did an article about "Rescue" which you can read in it's entirety here: http://www.rollingrescue.info/Rollin'Along.pdf
