this really bites...

so i start my truck up for the first time in a long time and i drive it down my driveway and turn it around in the street. i pull back in my drive way and feel some hard bumps or something i get otu and see this!!! the wheel is about to fall off.... only 1 lug is still on. one stud got sheared completely off and the rest jsut fell off...i dont know how this happened i know they were all tight when i put the wheel on last...im just glad i wasnt doing 30 or 40 miles an hour on the road!

so yeah i jacked it up and ptu on the spare bc these wheels are really difficult to get the lugs started on (and the mosquitos were really bad) and the tire was flat! so i had to put some air it in a grandma it back to the house
