My Customer's are Loyal because I Always Show-Up with Everything Possible to Repair Their Machine. There was a Joke, when I was at Strippit, that Half Their Servicemen Showed-Up at Customer's Shops with Only a Screwdriver & Their Toothbrush.
My Philosophy has Always been Different, and I Come Prepared.
I carry Control Electronics Boards, Servo Electronics, Switches & Sensors, Air Valves, Servo Motors & Servo Parts, Test Gear, Work Tools, Repair Books & Manuals, I.C. Chips & Transistors, Mechanical Machine Parts, Nut & Bolt Hardware, Etc.
Everything I could Possibly Need to Fix Problems and get the Hell Done. About 2 Tons Worth!
That's 1 Reason I Do Not Fly for Service Work Anymore.
This Truck has been Weighted at a bit over 8000 Lbs., but these
E-Series 245 -75 -16 Truck Tires are Rated for This Weight & Speed.
I Lost this Tire doing around 75 mph on Interstate 85 when it went
"Boom!" on 7/9/08. It was a bit exciting. I am going Back and see if I can Find the Tread! Notice the Broken Front & Rear Fender Braces and the Steel Inner Fender That's Ripped Away.
But, This is Not the first Exploding Bridgestone - Firetone Tire for this Truck! I have now had 5 Delaminated Belts and Blown Tires.
Note, this Model Truck Tire was Never a Part of Firestone's Recall.
So, I have had it for Exploding Bridgestone - Firestone Tires,
and am Switching Over to Michelins. You Should Too.
