Broke down little over 1 block away from O'Rileys and Advanced Auto this morning.

Loaned out truck and of course it must have come back semi broke without me knowing. Was my most enjoyable breakdown I've ever had when I've gotten caught with pants down and no tools. My only loss was 5 pounds from sweat from 2 trips back and forth from the early humidity and had to add to tool collection items I probably already had. $27 for 2 sockets and a ratchet and I'm on my way. Figured out AA is $1.50 cheaper on 1/2" drive metric 12pt sockets when O'R's didn't have an 11 mm that I needed...

Was on a Craigslist mission and had to turn around in a parking lot when I missed the turn. 12pt. Steering shaft bolt had backed out allowing wheel to spin. Glad it happened in a PL!!! :eek: Neither store carried metric in 12pt so had to guess metric size. My eye sizing cost me an additional $5.50.:rolleyes:

Just thought I'd share.
:beer:
 
Man had the bolt come loose on mine at 60 you were lucky!! I was too not to wreck but I called wifey and had her bring my junk from home:D
 
She probably didn't notice a 1/2" :D
