Got word on the crappy ford, not as bad as expected turned out it was a cracked wheel, which also wiped out the well studs, so 300 bucks plus 2 new tires I'll be back in business tomorrow evening.

Dispatch will be glad to know your working thru the summer now.
Glad the repair shop went somewhat easy on ya.. Tire shop maybe a bit worst.

I've never cracked a wheel before in my life, but there it was between 3 wheel studs....the noise made me think it was the rear end going bad. The wheel and tire turned out the same price, the wheel studs are $11.00 a piece that's what caught me off guard

He-he...
Those prices would have been 300% more in sprinter. And you would have to wait 3 days until they made a part so that another sprinter driver could deliver it to the dealership at $2 per mile in the windy weather.

It is hard to crack a wheel, unless you are driving in Michigan. Or, maybe you were working with the "mash" and thought you were driving the Vette!
