Fortunately the dealership is just across the street.  I’m getting new tires because of three key factors:

  1. Kelly tires do not last as long as they say they will.
  2. Michigan roads are beat to hell and they return the favor.
  3. It’s the middle of winter and we are traveling to see my parents tomorrow (350+miles).

So I’m going with B.F. Goodrich this time around.  I’ve been apprised by the shop manager that this is the way to go.

In the mean time I get to watch a scary-old librarian walk back and forth who has just donned an equally scary-multi colored shawl.  It looks like Jerry Garcia threw up on it.

By the way, this day is in no way even close to the crappy dealership shuttle van story that was penned over at JunkDrawerBlog.com.  It’s a good read.
