Wednesday Afternoon Flats

It seems our luck hasn't changed. Just before lunch Melissa called and she was stranded with a flat tire and two hundry girls. She was on the Jeep, but it wasn't long ago that I had a Monday Morning Flat on the car.

So I left work and went to change it and then later Melissa took it in to have it repaired. Turns out it had three holes in it. A nail and a screw in the treads (which were probably ok) and also a hole in the sidewall which made it go completely flat. As you may well know, a hole in the sidewall can't be patched. That means a new tire. A new Goodyear SUV tire. $133 installed. Ouch again. The woes of living in an area of new construction, I guess. Posted by Chris on 3/31/2004 09:43:00 PM :: Permalink
