Dad 401: Another Truck Story

(Dad had quite the day. Enjoy his post!  ~  Tracy)

Derf Here! Not a bad winter afternoon after our two-day snowstorm is over. My hometown (Sanford) has received four feet of snow in the last two weeks. We have received over two feet of snow in the same time period. Spring is one week away with another storm presently predicted for the first day of Spring.

I spent some time plowing a little this morning. All of a sudden my truck started pulling to the left. Thought I had a driver's side flat. Checked it out and no flat tire. Continued down to Glen and Deb's to take two swipes to clear their mailbox. Went home and still had steering problems but blasted snow banks down out by the road. Parked truck and noticed passenger's side front tire tilted out quite a bit. Lew took a picture of this. Must get fixed in case of another storm.



Called Glen at Patriot Subaru and made him aware that the truck will be sent to his service department. Within an hour my truck was on a Triple A tow truck and off to Patriot. One side has new arm where it rusted out. Other side was checked and a hammer stroke broke that. Will be ready by tomorrow is my guess.

Until next time!

Toodle Pip!

Derf!
