BornToRide · 03-25-2006, 06:41 PM

ok well i do all highway driving with my truck and this made me mad at only 45 000 km my truck blew a tire!!!! it just made me so mad so i needed to say something. it think thats early for a tire to blow. i have not had any other problems with anything since then and it now has 160 000 kms on it and ive only had the truck almost 3 years

gotta vent because of a problem, you got a truck and the only problem you have had in 3 years is a tire?? I think you should be praising instead of venting! c'mon man, there are a lot more that have bigger problems!

its the fact of the milage on it that it blew so early. i love the truck but a tire should have lasted over 45 000 km. thats a little early for it to blow and i know its an awesome truck and great for everything just 45 000 is a little early for a tire to be going dont you think ?

There is no telling why it blew. Coulda been a defect. who knows. I agree with project though. No sence mourning a dead tire.

Could have been you hit something, or you didnt keep the pressure set correctly, Either way it is a tire, a wear item that failed to function any furthur. Are you gonna be upset when the brakes wear out too. Just replace it and enjoy the truck.
