Want to go fishing. I like catfish and I like to jug fish. Took a friend and looked at a boat today with that in mind. Boat is perfect for what I want. My friend turned into a banker and I brought it home.
I had barely pulled onto the road out of the sellers driveway when the right tire slung the tread. Spare was up and good. Used my Blazer jack but I didn't have a lug wrench. I did have a pair of vise grips.
Now think about this....I changed that tire using only a pair of vise grips. My shoulder held up fine, tho it is aching now. Well, went down the road after the tire change. Got about 6 miles from home and the spare let go.
I was out of options. No more spares. So I drove the last 6 miles in at 20mph. I pretty sure somewhere in that 6 miles I made youtube as the idiot driving without a tire. Blazer pulled it like a champ.
But, hey, I made, thanks to the grace of God, and now I can go fishing soon...I hope.
