    high winds

    Best tire for daily use?

    Best tire for daily use?

    I can no longer recommend the Falken Wildpeak AT3W unfortunately. I had a tire replaced (made in Taiwan all 5 that I bought a few months ago) with a made in CHINA tire from Discount tire. A sharp stick/needle made its way through the sidewalk Saturday and they got the replacement in..... the...

    Corona virus lock down (camping )

    Any normal time your sarcasm would have been plain as day. Unfortunately in these crazy times there are people that actually have those thoughts, especially some of the power hungry local politicians. Thanks for the laugh! :smile:

    "People who are traveling full time are a big problem they need to be quarantined in one spot or sent home or locked into a compound and not allowed to leave until this is over in a year or so." Unreal
