Yesterday son had an almost brand new recap blow on the rear driver of his truck. He said it was the loudest tire bang he has heard yet. It bent the back of the front half-fender a little but there wasn't any more damage. $600 for two new recaps and some lost time and he was on his way again.

Son was following 1/4 mile behind and the bang was loud to him. There was a car tailgating the combine trailer and when the truck stopped the car stopped too.

I'll bet he didn't tailgate any trucks after that. Jim
