I called my Ins. Agent. I need to get some estimates and call her back.

::Teacher: Usually you'll see cords sticking out of those gators in the road. The retreading process does not include cords, just rubber. Tire casing failure is generally due to poor air pressure maintenance.Quote:

About 15 years ago, I was on 635 Westbound from Garland when I saw a piece of plywood flip up after an 18 wheeler ran over and hit the ladies car in the lane next to me. 8 years ago I was telling one of the guys I work with about it and he looked at me very oddly and said it was his wife in the car that had that happen to her at that same time. ::Hmm::
I recall driving up 75 ~50 mph with a mattress in the back of the truck, tied down in the back(My father said that was all that was needed, I learned never to argue even when they are wrong).... Needless to say it was interesting seeing the mattress fly out go off the 18 wheeler behind us and over all lanes of traffic to rest in the left shoulder.
I almost T-boned a deer on the way back home from here once. I was driving on 82, and I looked down to mess with the radio, and when I looked up the biggest doe I had ever seen was in front of me. I swerved hard left, missing the deer by about a foot. I was eye level with the bottom of the deer's stomach, and had I hit it, it would have been bad.
The damage...
Ah come on... That'll buff right out. ;)
Any luck with estimates?
I'm talking to Rogue about doing it. Dallas Roadster wanted $1077.00.Quote:

Hmmm, if I were Rogue and knew the competition's price.Quote:

Funny, just got off the phone with a vendor in Boise who wanted to know what their competitor had quoted me.
Ed's body shop in Allen did a great job on my Mom's Miata several times.
