Thinking of buying a rubber plantation

[Ric_Flair]

Now that I'm into the toy hauler category I've come to realize what an investment I have in tires.

Truck = 7
Trailer = 7
Toy = 4 (or 8 since I upgraded and kept the stockers)

That's 22 friggin tires! :E

First liar does'nt have a chance. LOL I've got a farm and lost count at 32. Must be at least 179.

Them not be made of rubber either :W

Ah ha!!! That explains why they wouldn't give me a pro-rated discounted when I tried to trade in four used ones for a new set.

You may want to rethink your investment proposal 🙂

Almost all new tires don't contain much natural rubber. Its synthetic rubber made from petroleum distillate byproducts. Generally, only snow tires use high percentages of natural rubber anymore because it stays softer when cold. That's partly why snow tires cost more.

Ha! with our cars, trucks, trailers, bikes, atvs, and mowers 88 tires.

You may not have bought a rubber plantation but, you sure paid for one. :E
