Default Minimum maintenance road fun!

So the day after Thanksgiving, I had my back tires slashed. Oh I was heated since I don't think I've ever made any enemies around here. My buddy's sister's Xterra had her back ones slashed too. We were parked right next to each other. Thinking her yellow Xterra was mistaken for someone's wife or something. Well I had to get two new tires. They didn't have the same ones, so now I'm rolling two brands. Both have similar treads though. Well what does one do with new tires? They tear up the minimum maintenance roads!

I don't know man... Be really glad to be away from these military towns next year though. I had someone on Fort Hood steal my mirrors on the motorcycle I had back then. Hopefully I won't be dealing with delinquents and jealous spouses at College Station.

That sucks... Gotta think on the bright side though... Tires are cheaper then every window on the truck

Yeah I guess you're right on the windows. I'm going to see what the insurance tells me tomorrow though. $383 might be cheaper if they want me to pay the $500 deductible. If anything, I hope they catch the lowlife that did it and make him/her pay it. I'm not really holding my breath for that one to happen.

Would a claim like that make your insurance go up any? I'm not very educated with that lol

I don't know. I'm with a good company though. I have a good driving record, and wasn't in a wreck. Hopefully they help pay for it with the police report.

A lot of insurance company's will cover it if you were not in it at the time, like a while ago my truck got hit in a parking lot, messed stuff up pretty bad but my insurance covered it because I was not in my truck and my truck was the one that got hit.
