    I'm going to let the shop do it next Monday. Since the tire is no longer unbalanced and vibrating hopefully this will be the end of that adventure.

    You would be correct.

    https://driving.ca/auto-news/crashes/the-drivers-of-these-10-vehicles-net-the-most-duis-u-s-survey

    Here are the 10 vehicles that made the list, presented from lowest percentage to highest; yes, seven of them are pickup trucks, but there’s also a Subaru WRX, an Audi A4, and, in the most twisted of appearances, a Ford Contour, which was only with us for six model years.

    10. Ford Contour: 2.92% of owners
    9. Dodge Dakota: 2.94%
    8. GMC Sierra: 3.01%
    7. Chevrolet Silverado: 3.02%
    6. Toyota Tacoma: 3.08%
    5. GMC Sonoma: 3.09%
    4. Audi A4: 3.28%
    3. Chevrolet S Truck: 3.47%
    2. Subaru WRX: 4.1%
    1. Dodge Ram 2500: 4.95%

    I don’t know about DUI's but the Dodge Dakota should be one truck that should be erased from existence. I had a 2005 (bought it with 6 miles on it in 2005) and the idea of a "lemon" is a better concept since you can add sugar and make Lemonade. This thing was make from Tin Foil and Despair....
    This is of things that went wrong with it is too long to mention.

    Cinnamon sugar swirl, specially for French Toast. I'll write down the base recipe as soon as I feel like digging out my notebook, I bake by feel anymore for my regular recipes.

    Oh man, I respect bread by feel. I've made a ton of breads and probably could, but I don't risk it. I weigh out everything still.

    ^^^ That's a killer recipe.

    Just opened a billion cheap milk caramel cubes one at a time, and diced them into 9 smaller cubes, so I could throw them into a cocoa cookie dough.

    Caramel exposed to the outside goes crunchy but not tooth-sticky. The stuff deeper in forms pockets of cookie crumb saturated with chewy milk caramel. You have to fridge the dough, rotating it in and out of the fridge as batch size permits/requires, and you have to get the blobs patted nice and spherical and within a particular size range. Gotta eyeball em hard during the last 2 minutes of the 10-12 minute bake time.

    These are a pain in the ass to get right and turn a base recipe noted for its simplicity and speed into an extremely tedious, fussy chore. Failures are perfectly edible of course, but when the texture is perfect, it makes the process worth it.
