MY RANT FML
 
Just recently sold my 2000 Jeep cherokee a few months back. Got a 2008 Subaru legacy daily driver.

Last night my tpms light comes on. I figure ill handle it in the morning.

Morning comes, Tires flat......

I need to purchase 4 new tires because its an AWD vehicle and the other 3 tires have almost 11,000 miles on them



Sooo there goes close to $600 for 4 fuckin tires, coulda been mustang money

just pissed and letting it be known

just put on the one new tire, get the whole thing up on jacks except the one tire, tie the card down real good, and burn the hell outta the new tire untill it matches the rest.

lol

I agree man. Everyone needs new tires at some point for their DD. Or as I call it "my car". same as gas, oil changes, insurance. Sell the Subaru, get a Mustang, drive it, put tires on it as needed.. Problem solved.. :p

I agree with doodie, move on with your life. If you catch anal worms, then thats a FML.

r3dn3ck 05-09-2010 07:22 AM

w00t to that.

My mom has leukemia, my stepdad has colon cancer. they live alone. the bank is foreclosing and kicking them to the curb, they have nowhere to go and are begging me for help that I can't give. That's FML... not "oh no I gotta buy tires which I know wear out anyway"

Fucking whiners.
