Sick shot, beautiful location.

Dr.Mike might need to upgrade his camera to this one like mine.

Michelin pilot sport all season 4

The day before I went to Lexus to get an oil change and rotate tires, I was told 3 tires need to be replaced. Hmmm they were purchased 2015 and now only 7k miles later I need new tires???

The wife calls Michelin to complain, Michelin said I passed warranty time but will do a "good will assistance" ok cool don't what that means but here we go.

I go to discount tire, they do a warranty inspection calls Michelin, " ok sir credit of 75% on your new set" booooooom thanks Michelin!

That's just like my tires on my old car. Only 12k on them since 2003. I wonder if I can get a goodwill deal on mine?

I just bought my 2nd son an Infiniti G35. The rear tires were plum worn out. I told the previous owner I'd rather buy the car with worn out tires and I could put really good tires on it, than have you put some dirt cheapies on first. He was fine with that of course, but also provided me with a tire receipt from Discount Tire. The tires on there had a 30k mile warranty and only had 14.Xk miles on them. Discount Tire didn't bat an eye. They prorated in the neighborhood of 50% (I wasn't going to nitpick with them), and I bought hella good new rear tires for my son's car. The new tires were on discount, I got proration ... it was a good deal all around. I like Discount Tire. I just wish they'd buy some friggin alignment machines...

I really like Discount Tire too. My Trailblazer and the Lexus always use Discount Tires. My old Monte Carlo had t use Coker Tires because I wanted he original 2 inch whitewalls and of course nobody carries those anymore. Man, I'm OLD. But, that's a good thing.

I'm right there with ya. I see my facial hair and the hair on my head, and all my mind thinks is, "frosty." It's graying out, makes my head look frost. But ... at least I still have hair on top. Will just shave it when I loose it.
