Deffinately only speeding up to 65 max. Try to maintain at 63mph. Tire blew out in Tennesse with damage to the undercarriage, and wheel fender trim. I had a brand new TPMS for this trip also. Wouldn't go without it. With 6 tires back there, its the only way to know whats happening.
Good news / Bad news...
The good news, there was an RV repair center only 1 mile ahead.
The bad news, the attendant wanted to back my rig into his bay to do the tire work. He was only 23yrs old and a little green, but seemed like he knew his 'stuff'. Well...he backed it up alright, turned way to sharp and put the trailer right through my trucks rear window!. (Yes I do have a slider). A#@@#$, lkjff!!!!!$^&^^/. Didn't loose my cool but wound up owning the place. Lost 4hrs off return trip.
Purpose of this rant...always stay with your rig!
