Tires are expensive because it takes several gallons of oil to make them.

I agree with you that $600 is a lot but the average for a 4x4 truck, it usually costs around $1,000 or more for 4 tires. My friend has a Toyota 4Runner and she pays that much for her tires.

I should remember not to buy a 4x4!
 
I suck at interpersonal relationships. Not a new idea that would *apply* to me, it's just I had two women in my past say the same things today and I figured I just suck majorly at them. All the deeper emotions/secrets etc., she has to basically pry it out of me. I'm very guarded about who I am.

Figure out how long this sort of perception has been going on....<goes looking for women he talked to for more than a few hours at least and asks them to give a personal, honest assessment>


Going to watch "good will hunting"

Mind blown: "you're one of the most genuine guys I've met"....gonna drown myself in fast techno and race laps online.

I learned that the price of small french fries from McDonald has gone up. Now it is $1.80 to buy one. I bet in a year or two, it'll increase to $2.
 
I learned I will be using my tax money to buy me a new set of tires this year. My truck is out of alignment and my front driver side tire is worn down badly on the inside. I will likely have to replace it. For now I may put my spare on the front until my tax money is taken care of. I may try rotating the rear tires to the front and putting new ones on the rear to see if that will help.
 
My new tires cost me 400 and I still need to get front tires reaglined again. I blew out two tires when I tried to drive home after leaving ER after taking painkillers for severe pain there.

Let me tell you - I recently gave tire companies a call finding which offers tires at cheap prices.

One priced for all 4 tires at $1,176 - yes, FOUR.
The other priced at $660 for all 4 tires
They are sports tires and my car is small.
The tires are 195/45/R16

&*%^!
