Today's junk yard finds

Ohhhhhhh no ****! These gloves came with the truck! That's crazy cool. I found out the hard way that no matter how well the 25 year old spare tire looks as it's been inside the truck the entire time.... you cant trust it. It detreaded itself ripping off the rear coolant and ac lines while my wife was driving... fun fun. $200 later I had a new spare on the side of the road. Man I need a set of those massive tire irons.

Tires technically have an expiration date of 7 years after date of manufacture

My things that I'm on the lookout for on my next trip are a new front bumper since I FUBAR'd mine, a third row seat, a second row headrest, and some other odds and ends

At the time I didnt know that. Plus suburbans keep them in the vehicle it self with a cover. So I figured it was still good. But nowdays I'm like better to be safe then sorry. Plus when i get new tires ima throw my spare into the rotation so it gets worn and used. Instead of wasting a tire lol.

Actually I recommend all driver style headrest. They are more beefy for the head lol also what happen to the 3rd row?

I will certainly take that into consideration. And the third row was missing when I got her. Wasn't a deal breaker though.
