Yeah...guy mentioned he would need to get it removed before he got rid of the truck.
Saw some tool have his chick blow into it so he could drive. I called the cops before he even put it in drive and they had him pulled over a mile or 2 up the road and they were pulling him out of the car by the time I passed. I honked, smiled and waved because I know he saw me watching while she did it. Hate drunk drivers

This guy was driving his nephews car which I’m sure didn’t have an interlock in it.

I’m right there with you in hating drunk drivers. I had 1 uncle who was killed because he was drunk and hit a bridge support and another who was paralyzed when he was drunk went off the road and hit a tree.

The tires on Joseph’s truck will be needing replaced in the next several months so I bought a set for $300 off of Craigslist. If we use the rims they came on, they will need cleaned up, for sure, but the rims that are on the truck now need cleaned up also.

Well today, I helped Joseph put the “new” wheels we bought on his truck. The rims that the tires were mounted on are a little rough but they work. Over the winter he will probably clean up the steel rims and paint them and then remount the tires on them. Then he will have to decide what to do with the newer rims.


He finally got a chance to use the impact to take the lug nuts off.

Cleaned up the mounting faces of the drum and wheel with a wire wheel.
