    Irrelevant? Maybe, but in the end I was defending wooly! But!!!!! Drumming and I ended that part of the conversation.

    LOL yeah I know. In my experience, Wooly doesn't need help in that area.

    And I'll say this and quit..lol But, fedex never once did an investigation into his accident, once they found out he had the accident they immediately suspended him from driving. And once, they found the air valve went bad they demanded the vendor return it. But anywho, glad the op is not hurt. Good luck to you!!
