I don't think ole Shameless has moved much in the last few years. I'm pretty sure the Chevy Allis is in the same spot, just overgrown with weeds and stuff. I think those of us going to Hutch from the west should have a rest stop at Dale's place to see all his stuff and try out his food. |

| Dale if you are driving down the road and it feels like the back end is soon gonna be in front of you, let some air out of the tires. If you start out with too much air they can be real squirly. When you have too much air, the tires are riding on the center of the tread. You want the whole tread on the ground to stop being squirly. For years I always thought you needed to add more air. But studying a Goodyear book one time, I came across the correct solution to the problem. |

Ya Joe I know what your a sayin'. These we sold were probably an off brand made by Goodyear on a Friday night. a friend of mine worked in the Armstrong tire factory. He did maintance in the plant. He came in the shop one afternoon. He and his clothes were black as dirt. Maybe blacker. They have machine called banberries. They hold carbon black, stuff that toughens up tires. One of them had plugged up due to operator error, he had to crawl down inside and clean it out. Boy was he mad. A couple of years after he retired he passed away from cancer. I often wondered if stuff like that caused his cancer. Any of those mud/snow tires for pickups that I buy have the extra carbon black in them, they are called anti chip tread compound. They do wear longer than a regular mud and snow tire.
