So I drive out to De Moines IA this past week with the GF (she don't fly, don't ask) for her parents 50th wedding anniverary and I notice the new TOYOs are vibrating a bit. So I look up the local custom shop dealer, place called ICE Trucks, and go over to get a balance. I go up to the counter and ask how much for a 4 wheel match balance. The guy says it's usually $15 a tire but since you are wearing a Dave's Custom Boat shirt it's $10. :cry: It was even one of the old red shirts, faded with holes. Still works. :cry:
So they have some Sony GPSs on sale and the GF buys one for her Dad as a gift. They guy says...ah, don't worry about the balance, it's on the house. :cry:
My boat's on the showroom floor for sale. If it sells, I'll still wear the shirts. :eek:

I think he figured you couldn't afford the $15 per wheel as you had some tattered old rag on for a shirt. :D :D :D
