Message	commercial... I'm glad your truck wasn't damaged more than it was. That sucked. Driving the Z back from CA, I was somewhere in NM and suddenly realized I FORGOT to check the nutz... Did so at the next gas stop and was missing one from the front right. Luckily there was an auto parts store a mile away (it was a "big" desert town... hehe) and I replaced it. Yet another missing nut story... Gary, thx again for the spare tires. ;) Tim (Dallas) :I had my turck tires rotated at a shop last week and the tech didn't tighten then driver side front tire. Needless to say, It came off in traffic and almost hit a few cars. I had to chase my tire/wheel for over a mile and make a speedy recovery on the side of the road... No damage to anyone thank God! :Always check you nutz;-) :Gary
