A Freestar bites the dust - on it's last journey
We have five Freestar made in China replacements for the original made in China Missions that came on the 2007 3400RL. While we were returning from the farewell trip in the 3400 we had the plasure of hearing that unforgettable "Boom" that many have experienced. We were blessed in that we were only going about 10 mph on the access ramp to the Industrial Parkway in Eastern Kentucky. When we had left on Friday, I had unexplainably grabbed the bottle jack and air compressor and placed them in the truck. Had no idea we would need them both, but also did not know the spare had about 25 psi in it. The tire change took about an hour and we limped on home without a spare. I managed to find a replacement Freestar on the internet since I wanted matching tires on the rig for the trade-in day. Best price I found was $87 plus shipping and the tire was put on the rig this morning before it's trip to the dealer. I e-mailed Tireco a couple of times with no response and do not really expect any assistance from them anyway. I am sure glad that we upgraded the tires on the new rig.
