TTW return trip update: It's amazing what 106 degree heat motivates you to >>>
do. Had a blow out on the rear driver's side. I was watching the rear passenger and expected it to go but not the driver's side.
Anyway, in the ovenish heat I managed to dump car onto side of highway, clear trunk, get spare, jack car, switch wheels, and get back on the road all under 10 minutes!
I wasn't even speeding! Was taking my time because of the heat. Anyway. At the shop getting both rears replaced with some Kuhmos.
Later!
