So as many of you know. I’m moving from Long Island to Florida. So I left 4 hours ago. To tow my Dakota down. With my f150. Leave them both down there. And fly home.
I get 3 hours into the trip. And I feel a shudder. Then a loud boom! I get out to inspect. The dakotas rear rim broke in half. Shredded all the lug nuts. And flew off the truck. Leaving just the tire. And half the drum.
So now I’m waiting for AAA to pick this up. And tow it to the closest shop. Where I’m probably going to tell them to keep the truck and do what they want with it.
It’s going to be a hell of a long night
