I was running about 60 mph saturday on my way to the ramp and the front right tire blew on my trailer. It scared the H out of me, it sounded alot like the outdrive hitting the pavement. After i figured out what was wrong and restled my 55ft of truck and trailer to the side of the road, I found my self becoming extremely anal about what had happened. I had brand new rims and tires put on the trailer about a month ago. My signifigant other (Kathy) saw that i was extremely upset and pissed. She told me"Honey just calm down and find a happy place" I then looked at her with a smile and said"Ok im there". She said where" Where are you sweetheart". I said " In my boat on the lake doing 65mph, WITH YOU DRAGGING LIFELESSLY BEHIND IT!!!!!!!!!!" She got the picture.
I nursed it down to the ramp and got it off in the water, And the day continued. Glad i have a slip at the local marina.
