:hello:

Back home from Rausch Creek. This trip was punishing. Lots of damage. One truck got 4 new dents, and a broken back window on his cap. Another got 2 new dents, ripped off a rear brake line on the axles. Another one lost the electrical connection to his axle lockers and smart bar disconnect. I got one dent and threw a P206 engine code. Turned out to be that water got into a connection. Plus the top of my head is sunburnt.

Time to start being an adult again. :shakes head:

Ugg, one of my rear tires de-beaded on my tractor after it went flat. Time for new tires. They are 19 years old and have some dry rot.

Yeah.....that's a bit long for not replacing tires. That was asking for trouble.

Another hot one. Yesterday was 98, with a heat index of 120. Let's see what today brings.

There's apparently a heat dome trapping in a bunch of heat in the northwestern area and is making it hotter than the southern states near the equator.

Perhaps there is some truth to this global warming after all :stirthepot:

This actually just reminded me: What is the tire life on cars, regardless of tread? I've read 10 years and 5 years. :confused:

For context, my Z came with new tires when I bought her in 2018 and put roughly 12K miles on them to date, which are now 7 years old. Car was always parked in the garage. Does the 10 years stand or should it be sooner?
