Didn't need to use the brake on the New Yucker either. Thing is, the tire didn't go down right away but he noticed the rubber on the quarter panel when he had to change a flat a couple of weeks later......and well, I'm pretty sure I paid for it over time because I was working for him at the time and continued to even after I got out of the military. He had a little bit of a heavy foot too so he understood it I guess. He quit pounding my *** when I was around 16 or so. Maybe he figured if all the poundings over the years didn't do any good, what would! And then there was the fact I never ended up in jail either. Maybe he thought I wasn't such a bad kid after all LOL
