so i left nice and early today to head across the state to vero beach and pick up a 97 mark, no problems, head back, no problems, that is........... until this happened....
so...... needless to say, 3 minutes before this happened i was cruising right along route 60 at 80 mph. i had just come into brandon fl and took off from a red light and felt an incredible series of hops going through the intersection when all the sudden it sounded like a stick of dynomite went off under my truck, the rear dropped like a bag of bricks and rubber shot over the front of the truck nailing my hood, the guy next to me, and smashed in the bottom of my rear quarter. 80 psi coming out of a 10 ply tire is not a cool sound!!! so i didnt have a jack, i didnt have a lug wrench, and i didnt have my bar that lets you lower the winch for the spare tire. so i had to walk to an advance auto and buy a 4 way iron and a small adjustable wrench to lower the spare. what a pain in the ass today was. it started off good. now i need to sell my 95 mark faster than before i need tires for my truck bad. on top of all this i had nice new clean clothes on and had to lay under the truck in a parking lot to fix the dam thing and i trashed my clothes. oh well, i made it home what a pisser though!!
