Phaedra, Know exactly what you mean about those Mexican roads and Big Rigs. While on the trail to San Christobal a few years back (Viva la Zapatista!), traveling behind a Big Rig over a mountain pass, when one of his rear tires blew. Thought for a second I was being shot out of a cannon. It might have been dangerous if I had been tail-gating as the flying debris was an impressive sight. Love the Xmas Tree Light Shows on the Besparkled Big Rigs, but don't like there tires too good. Trying to get solid running before hitting the road, although driving an imperfect vehicle through an imperfect world is a perfect possibility. Cheers, Dave Gunning & Sammy de Dog |
