ducksface 2 Posted September 1, 2012 Newer tires. First one probable road debris. Rolled into truck stop, they put-on ny spare and removed most of the wheel well. Five sqft hole in the floor. Drove back to kingman, picked up another spare, headed toward flagstaff. Now out 10 miles farther down the road. Posted the post above. Called roadside repair they were there in 35 minutes. Only charged $46 to change traffic side tire. Drove back to kingman and bought another spare. Decided we were still ok, went to home depot, patched the floor hole and headed your way. Right on top of the highest crest, just exactly between first flat and second flat, traffic stopped. I could see the other side of the valley, eight miles away, traffic is stopped and out of sight over the hill. At least an eight mile backup. Lucky us we were exactly at the only dirt crossover in the next/last four miles. Used it and went Home. Too tired or would have thought to camp at the truck stop. 82 miles from home us as car as we got, put 265 miles on the truck and was on the road 10 hours. Nadine is vacuuming tire debris out of the trailer. We will try again in the morning Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bradywgn71 1,007 Posted September 1, 2012 - ducksface... What an awful way to start a weekend. I hope you have much better luck tomorrow. See you there! We're packed and ready to leave in the morning. We have salsa, chips and beer. Sarah also cooked up a couple batches of cookies. Looks like Bret has plenty of firewood ! Can't wait to see everyone!
