    Well first off I couldn't sleep to good last night so when I got up this morning I was tired as hell. I guess I was just ready to get my tune. When I left this morning it wasn't raining at all but as soon as I got to Katy it started pouring. Second, when I was about 40 min. away for San Antonio my front left tire blew. When the tire blew I went into a small ditch and it put a dint underneath my door. The funny thing is only the tread came off. The tire was still inflated it was just riding on the metal wiring on the inside. I rode on the wiring for like 2 miles until I got to a gas station. I had to get a mobile tire shop to bring a tire to me and put it on where I was at. It was so hilarious watching the guy take of the tire and put it on manually. I didn't know how he was going to do it. Well when I finally got to Allen's it was worth all of the trouble. I can feel a difference in my truck. It runs a whole lot better. My shifts are very FIRM! Thanks Allen.

    EVERYONE WHO DOESN'T HAVE A NELSON TUNE SHOULD GET ONE. ITS WORTH IT!!
