tri axle. loaned it to a guy to help out his sister whos house got some trees knocked down around it about 200 mi away. hes a guy i know from work and lives near me. so he wants to haul his backhoe up there to help out.
i dont usually loan people stuff but it was a sob story and im gettin soft in my old age.
so he calls me on his way back and tells me he been thru six tires in 150 mi...now i dont know what he hauled up there but it mustve been a helluva backhoe. he made it there fine apparently but couldnt make it back...says the trlr was doggin goin down the road scuffin off the tires..he spends a bunch of time and money redrilling the spring seats in a rest area to get it home...brings it in with 4 bad tires and 1 bad rim..1 bad hub....
1 month later hes got the hub and the wheel fixed but i still got no tires and he wants me to pay for the mtg and i gotta buy the hub...cuz he already spent 1500 bucks on it....
i dont think i oughtta pay squat...was fine in my barn til he gotta ahold of it but now if i need it i gotta fix it myself....so today i gotta go git 5 tires..he paid only for 4 finally and pay for all the mtg.
my time and trble for doin a favor...and people wonder why i am such an a-hole...anyone else feeling my pain...
oh yeah..while mine was sitting broken he went and bought himself a trlr..used but bigger than mine
yer kickball
gary
thanks fer nuthin
