Spare tire?


Maybe I should take that extra spare tire and throw it in the back, a kind of insurance policy, to keep the tires from going flat.
 
Yeah and a can of fix a flat!! Heehee

This reminds me of a time when 2 of my farmer friends told me their engines had failed, and always after an oil change. I thought, "What the hell? I might as well not change the oil on my truck." And "if I should start pampering it," my thinking went went, "it would need more stuff, more trips to local Auto Zone, or even the local service station."

I drove that truck for another 8 years. My farmer friends knew I wasn't changing oil. They even asked. Finally had to junk it. The engine still ran fine at180k, but the bottom had finally rusted out. It was about 25 years old.
 
Yeah I'm beginning to think the same way. My truck has been pampered its whole life. At 100,000 miles I started doing maintenance on it. Now I think I have a oil leak for the third time in 8 months. Should have left it alone.
 
I have noticed that almost all trucks have something of a midlife crisis. They need and want everything after 100,00. Then, when you are ready to give up and sell them, they shape up and run good for another 100,000 miles.
