    What a day. Was headed for the Oregon Coast when we had a flat tire. Inside sidewall was torn up. Change to the spare and get 5 miles down the road, and it goes flat also. Inside torn up as well. Sat for two hours while the tow truck found us. Found that Costco was the only tire shop open on a Sunday. Ended up with 2 new tires. Turns out a back tire also had a large cut in the sidewall. Not sure what caused it.

    Many here know my dad retired from a International Harvester dealer after years of service, this is from a book given to me from the owner after the doors closed permanently.

    Sorry about your loss @catalinaflyer . Glad that it wasn't a unexpected loss though. It helps to know what is coming a lot in my experience.
