Due to the temp/humidity ( and no AC in the house, but awesome AC in the van ) , we decided to make the trip to check out those tires Friday after work instead of going Saturday morning. What I thought was a 1.5 hr trip was actually 2.5+ hrs one way. This meant we got a lot of seat time in the new van on the highway, let me tell you, it’s a damn good place to spend time. Totally comfortable on the ride there, 28.9 mpg averaged on the trip ( would have been better without hitting stop n go traffic twice on the way up ), and I’ve grown accustomed to the satellite radio.
When we arrived at the guy’s house, he pulled out 3 Firestone Destination LE2s in bags from the corner of his garage. Much to my surprise, what he described as “70% tread” turned out to be “still has the nubs on the tread”:
Loaded the 3 in the back, handed him the $40 he was asking for them, and we headed for home. It was 12:30 AM when we finally pulled in the driveway.
Saturday was an easy day, our friend’s 1 yo’s Bday party in the early afternoon, some yard work after, which led to some mudding to take brush to the village pile:
Followed by grilling out with friends.
Then a lazy day yesterday and work today.
