    Yeah it is, I agree bud.

    Like I said, not trying to insult or poke fun at, just stating how much of a lack of ability and/or knowledge there is these days. The technicians at the TA and other big truckstop chains are supposed to be "certified " on tires, lubes, general repairs and most importantly , WHEEL ENDS.

    Right, liability I do understand.

    The part that got me was they wouldn't even let you borrow their air hose to air it up, even if you did it yourself once you cancelled the repair order.

    Lawyers and bleeders must have put the hurtin on TA over a low tire I suspect somewhere. Sad

    Go right ahead, TA. Paint your bloody parking lot before bothering to fill the basketball sizes potholes... you can put lipstick on a pig...


    I’m IHOPing it tonight and in the morning... downright pitiful

    A lawyer friend of the family had told us once that every stupid law and rule was made because of someone's stupidity somewhere sometime along the way so I can only imagine what has happened to make some of these rules. Some people need saving from themselves and the rest of us have to suffer because of it. They used to call it unmucking the gene pool or natural selection!!
