No truer words ever spoken. The one thing that is more to blame than any of them that nobody ever talks about is “I’m a dumbass driver”. U-turns, curb rubs, overspeed, overweight all can contribute but of course it’s never MY fault. Lol.
Well, if all these flats are the fault of the driver, how come so many of them never reoccur when decent tires are installed? I had two flats within 2 years and less than 8,000 miles after buying a new 5th wheel. It's been over three times that long, and probably 3 times as many miles since I installed new tires, with no issues whatever. My driving style hasn't changed, the truck and trailer are the same, the only difference is the tires. Well, to be honest I now travel at higher speeds when I can, since I now have tires rated to more than 65 mph. Hmm, let me think about this.
