Buyer Beware

Buyer beware is true no matter where and how you spend your money. It's just like Olson's Transmission Repair in Blythe, CA who puts out a 3-year/36-month warranty and doesn't stand behind it. We have discovered that it pays to patronize well-known, established businesses with excellent reputations.

Good point Orv, can't disagree with you at all. The folks with the excellent reputations didn't get there with shoddy practices. A case in point is a certain tire dealer back in PA. 35 years in business and still going strong.

You know you are retired when you wake up in the morning with
nothing to do and go to bed at night with it only half done.

BUT, Keep in mind, doing nothing can be a very
tiresome job because you can't stop to rest

Speaking of that certain tire dealer, maybe he could tell me how important it is to buy RV tires with the ST in the size?

The ST = "Special Trailer". They have a stronger rating on the sidewalls which is necessary for the weight of the trailer. Check this out:
