    The worst plane I ever rode in was Frontier from Denver to Phoenix. It had plastic/fiberglass seating.

    THIS:
    [​IMG]

    With a little piece of vinyl for a butt pad. Didn't recline and was rock hard. I had never seen anything like it.

    Best plane I rode in was Delta. My plane broke down while I was in Vegas so they gave us the option of staying there or waiting for another plane. I was going to miss my connection in Salt Lake so I chose to wait since I had rather stay overnight in SLC since I knew it better. Had to wait around for like 4 hours but holy crap it was worth it. I had never seen a NICER plane in my LIFE. Even when the pilots got off they told the other pilots how sweet it was.

    Blue LED's in the ceiling, all brand new, TV's on each seat, free TV shows and movies, free games, I love when you can watch the flight paths. Phone chargers that actually work. Holy crap nice lol And I had the entire aisle to myself since most everybody else chose to stay in Vegas haha. Super depressing it was only a 50 min flight. :(

    I felt really bad because I overheard this women as she ran over to introduce herself to our pilots outside the gate say it was her first time flying ever! They set the bar way high for her haha. Every other flight will be a major let down.

    And they had hilarious safety videos. I thought I was going crazy at first lol. I saw a different version but they were like this:

    Got my Colby Valves... They look very sturdy, one more thing in the emergency kit.

    If you haven't seen them, it's for easily repairing a broken or leaky valve stem without having to dismount the tire.

    It happens, but mainly on rigid stems, like what you get with E rated tires or those TPMS thingys.
    Rubber stems are more prone to flexing until they rip off.

    I've got 4 rigid and one rubber, even they knew it was a full size spare to be rotated in, they put the rubber on it for some reason.

    I demanded rubber on mine at both Les Schwab and Discount Tire. I told them both no sale if they installed the rigid stems. There is no way that truck will ever see tire pressure above 35 psi.

    I would get more rubber if your going to rotate it with rigid. Safety first

    Coming from the guy who was thinking that it was a good idea to run without a spare tire... Because nobody gets flats brah. :rofl:

    Some like to prepare for possible issues, others like to wheel on bald summer tires, alone, on trails rated above a 6 in a blizzard... I R not the latter.

    I didn't realize they were putting them on... Or there was an option.

    It was not an actual possibility. I know a lot of people that wheel with lager tires then what there spare is...


    And im really glad that you were thinking ahead and making sure your sloppy joes were warm before you got onto the trail..
