Well crap… Plans change… (Patreon)

While I’m back on the road, tire fixed, but something else is up now. When they took off my tire, they called me over to show me almost no tread on outside of tire and sidewall cracking. I wanted to argue with them but then it came time to prepare some facts about my tires. I thought they would still be fine by now, but I got these tires in 2019. Which was three years ago… I put 57,000 miles on these tires. Lol. It is definitely time for new rubber on the RV. That is kind of scary. Time flies. And I have been putting a lot of miles on the road. Same thing for the car in fact. Just put new tires on the car in November 2020. 15 months ago. And these tires have the same uneven wear. I drove 12,000 miles in the car, but also dragged the car behind the RV for an additional 15,000 miles. So that’s 27,000 miles on the car tires… It’s weird how I was not on top of all this. Rubber and brakes are the most important thing as a traveler. And I have neglected my tires and I’m a little embarrassed. Needless to say, I have decided to take a couple days and sort this all out. this Shop treated me well today and they have some really good prices. Tomorrow I’m stopping in for the day to get 10 new rubber tires for the road. RV and car. A fresh start in 2022. It’s got to be done. No way around it. Will get back on the road on Wednesday, and feel safer.
