Hi Hidden Techers, Thank you to those who answered about the "cellphone dropped in snowbank" issue. My friend has his phone sitting in a sealed container of rice as we speak. Outcome currently unknown... Next challenge: The same person needs to find snow tires ASAP for his Ford Ranger pickup. Long story short, he crashed his other vehicle on Saturday and now must drive the truck that currently has very bald tires. (And I am hoping his luck turns around soon!) Since his phone is currently defunct, I would like to help him find these tires, and would like to ask for your recommendations on *reputable junk yards or other places for used tires in the Springfield area*. He lives in Indian Orchard and the closer to him the better, especially given t he impending storm. He has a mechanic friend who can mount them. And in case someone knows of some tires available, the truck is a 2005 Ford Ranger, 2WD /rear wheel drive , regular cab, (I don't know trim offhand) and the tires that are on the truck now are 225/75/15. I'm not sure if that is the factory recommended size, or if it is up or down a bit in size. I am going to find that out as soon as I can. He would like to replace at least the two rear tires, if not all four. Thanks, you guys! Deb -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
