No.
He hates disc brakes...although he doesn't own any tractors and trailers with them. But when people with them like disc brakes, we are all wrong. ( pretend there are about 80 eye rolling emoticons here )
What is the advantage of trailers having disc brakes?

I got all I needed after he said he runs Chinese tires. Complaining about the cost of disk brakes and Chinese tire....I'm a mechanic so I know the type lol. You know how I'm always ragging on clapped out Pete's that people don't maintain...that's the type lol.Roberts450 and MartinFromBC Thank this.

Know this what?
-
You can like them all you want. I just said they were unecessary. Lots of folks like chrome too but you don’t need it. Some even say a waste of money
-
I know you’re type too. A full of #### mechanic that likes to spend someone else’s money. I told you I’ve run every #### tire there is and there ain’t squat difference between them and Michelin ain’t worth the money. Had a pair of Michelin steers flat spot after 60,000 miles and they wouldn’t replace them so why spend the extra money? you wouldnt know that because you don’t pay the bills you’re just a workerFlaSwampRat Thanks this.

Your right besides the two trucks I run I have no idea what costs of maintaining a vehicle are.MartinFromBC Thanks this.
-
I’ve got probably 300+ tires to buy and maintain so don’t talk to me about your POS Michelins you don’t have a clue
-
Love how you guys keep trolling the little clapped out Pete comments. It’s obvious Y’all have got hood envy. You wish you could run a 33 yr old 359......but you can’t because it’s got scary drum brakes and......wait for it.....deadly MANUAL slacks. Oh the horrors!shogun and FlaSwampRat Thank this.

This thread has become comedy gold!
I have run a lot of Michelin tires, on many trucks, doing different types of work, for over 30 years, still run them on several trucks.
They are great tires! Its not hard to flat spot a tire though, skid it along down the road, doesn't take much.npok and FlaSwampRat Thank this. -
No...I really don't. Having a 359 would be awesome to chrome out and just have as a toy tho.... I'll give ya that. I have often thought about buying a old one just to restore and have for ####s and giggles. You running 300 tires worth of 359's? That's a gold mine in most people's eyes right there.MartinFromBC Thanks this.
