How old are those, Greg? A good lesson on tread depth alone doesn't indicate good tire condition.

Evening gents. I saw the drone back and forth. I didn't want to be a spoil sport legally speaking. But Russ, you're right.

Greg, those tires don't look worn. Are they old? I didn't get a pic, but my rear tire was bald, dang near past the wear bar.

I am assuming they are originals-5-6 years old with 12,600 miles on them.

Evening gents! Been a busy weekend but we made it through. Now the last piece of the puzzle - driving the kid out to Boston carrying most of his earthly possessions. And some of mine. Not looking forward to Boston traffic. Hopefully lots of people will have taken the week off. I know everyone I work with is off. Some of them live in Boston, so there's hope.

Don't envy you the drive, Bob. Especially at this time of year.

Evening Greg. The forecast is for clear weather so fingers crossed. But I really hate driving in the East. No courtesy out there at all.

And it figures the day I'm away from TOAK all the interesting stuff gets talked about. Did some back reading........drone swarms, drone swarm counter-measures (EMF?), end of times, cats sleeping with dogs...
