    few years back I had a craftsman open end wrench in rear tire, ran it over with the front and it stuck in the rear. But I did take it to Sears and get a new one lol.

    Last flat was driving a Humvee out in 29 palms and the softest cactus ever punch through the sidewall of the tire literally in the middle of no where. After 2 hours of waiting we finally got a wrecker out to lift it so we could change the tire.

    I watched a crescent wrench come off a trailer on the interstate, bounce once, and clear the cab by an inch or so. Slow motion. Thought it was coming through the windshield. Funny how things like that slow down in your mind.

    Sorry, but it's funny. Wife's dad has to mastifs at around 150 lbs each. He used to drive a hyunday vera Cruz and those two dogs chewed everything including the seatbelts, plastic trim, wires, headliner . The dealership where he traded his hyunday gave him $500 for a two year old SUV, btw...it had leather interior

    Should have parted it out, could have got at least $500 for the doghouse alone (pun intended).

    No pics, but about a year ago I had a screw that slowly drained my tire. It was near the center, so they removed it and plugged it. About 8 months ago had another flat in the same tire (i knew because it was marked) and same spot...because the plug came out.

    While working at a shop I pulled a wire coat hanger out of a tire. I thought it was a nail but it just kept coming out. About 2 ft. long and still had the spirals on the top where it once made a hook.

    Couldn’t even begin to count the number of flats but nothing too weird. Had a strut break and the spring wore a groove into the inside part of my tire until it popped. That was a little odd but no pictures

    Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. My brother had a house built in the mid 1700’s. Square nails all over
