old school observation.... tire whacker
Observed this weekend...18 wheeler operator using a metal rod , strolled around his rig... whacked each tire. No TPMS, no digital tire pressure gauge. The man makes a living driving big rigs. Hm...

These thoughts trigger my cerebral quantum leaps...
Not to get all misty eyed nostalgic... but couldn't help
recall, (in childhood), every gas station stop the hood was popped
and all fluid levels were checked...100% of the time."You can trust your
car to the Man who wears the Star...the big bright Texaco Star".
Can't even tell you the last time I've seen a hood popped at a gas
station fill-up ...self included. I'm lucky if I wash the windshield.
What happened ???
Yep..I'm lazy. Dad would be stunned if he took a road trip today.
