Buppies, I've looked at their site but have used tirerack for a long time.
Have bought a lot of tires from them, including six for this motorhome that I went to the DE warehouse and picked up to save six percent tax.

But if there is a good local Michelin/Goodyear/Pirelli/Cooper dealer nearby, the trick is to print out the page from tirerack showing you did your homework and this is the tire you want. They can see the price just fine, and I've found I just wait for the return estimate and it's always close to tirerack.

so I educate myself on tire rack first and then try to do business locally.
someone has to install them and balance them and having a good tire shop
is valuable. I figure 15-20 bucks a tire to install and balance but I may be behind the times.

Discount tire went above and beyond getting tires for us Pirelli from factory in Europe. I get them put on locally but do not recall how much

+1 on Discount Tire.

I had a tractor tire go flat so I called them. They said "bring it in" and fixed it for me for free.

I get my tires for the Dodge locally, the garage deals with discount tire. I know I pay list price + mount and balance + 13% tax, but I don't care. That garage takes good care of me.

Anti-freeze done in the Kioti. I thought I had concentrate, I didn't, it was pre-mix and I diluted it another 1/2 a gallon. So now it is only good for -20°F. I am ordering concentrate and will drain the overflow tank and add the concentrate to that. I kept the ball valve to the heater shut off, so there is also -60F in that. When ever I need to add some more I will add the concentrate. Someone put pre-mix in a concentrate bottle. Oh well, stuff happens.

Snow might = work for some of you, but for me it is play. I get to play on my tractor.

work, and a pain in the butt when the driveway isn't froze.

I turn my back blade around backwards like this )>

69°F and .24inches rain.

Dr happy with pressure in Sophie’s eye, healing well. No prescription changes. Vision improved to 20/80.

Hopefully dry enough to resume mowing, but will definitely have to raise the deck.

Taking Sophie to Lobster dinner tonight. No particular reason other than restaurant finally having what they call Angry Lobster night, 1st time in a couple years, so just a special treat for my special lady.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

As do I it acts like a giant squeegee but it's still a pain in the butt, and then on my driveway you have to go over it repeatedly because even the 1300 pound back blade doesn't get it real clean when we get several inches of wet slop. A 14-16 degree slope (23-25%) is not a good location to get iced up.

With rain, I started a camp fire.
