[A/S] Re: Michelin or Bridgestone (Decisions Decisions!)



In defense of any tires my friend uses, he doesn't always do some of 
the things most of us do before leaving on a trip, like check air 
pressure. He didn't check if his 5er latched correctly & dropped his 
5er on his truck. This not to say I haven't done alot of dumb things 
when hooking up. Over the years, I've left camp ground dragging about 
every thing except the electric meter! My friend said he thought that 
tire looked a little low when we left the C.G. I alway buy Michelins, 
but wanted the bias ply tires instead of radials for the A/S.

This man is my very best friend, he saved my wifes life when a few 
rouge waves came in & washed my wife in to the ocean. He ran in & was 
able to grab her ancle & pull her out. He almost got pulled in 
himself! His adult daughter came & helped pull both of them out. I 
will always be in his debt!
