    Please re-affirm that my friend is an idiot.

    My buddy is currently going to see some "soulmate" as he describes, for the first time, driving from Grand Rapids, MI to somewhere near Toronto, Canada. I'm currently in Northville, MI with complete access to 4 empty lifts and innumerable tools at the corporate office, and he's about 2 hours past me and 5 hours from them.

    He just informed me that he's started leaking a quart per hour, and we knew before he started that his rear tires are so bald that the cords are creating sparks. Tire Rack JUST dropped off his replacement tires (275/40R18 Potenza RE-11s :D ) and though we don't have tire machines, theres a place just down the road.

    I suggested he turn around and come this way, and I'd take care of it for him, but he's headstrong in making it there then going to some random shop to fix his oil leak.

    He's also going up there 2 days earlier than expected (and she doesn't know this) so it's not like he's pressed for time.

    I should probably just quit worrying about it and hopefully he'll get there and not pay too much at whatever shop he decides to go to, but I can't get over how stupid carrying on seems to me. Though when i read this back to myself it sounds like I think the whole situation is stupid. Combination of both? Uggh.

    Yes. He's arriving 2 days early to meet someone for the first time, going to Canada on bald tires, in a car that leaks a QUART AN HOUR!!!!!! :crazy:

      you're an idiot for caring.


      and he's an idiot for not planning ahead and getting tires before going.

        Isn't this the start to some stupid Disney movie and it will end up him getting there in 5 days and arriving on something corky like a dogsled or something?...

        but yeah I'd say he should at least fix the tires but adding anther 4 hours to the trip would suck, if I knew I was getting laid from some random chick then I might keep trekking also.

                          It will be a miracle if that car survives, but i have a friend thatis in a similar relationship, and is now marrying that girl. Hope it works out for him. Should've gotten the car fixed.
