Things That Go Bump In The Night

Driving into town today I felt a big bump and thought I had hit a pothole. However it turns out that one of the shock absorbers has broken. I might be able to fix it myself however I don’t really have the expertise and ability to contort myself to make it happen. The truck needs an oil and filter change, so maybe I will get it all done in town.

Due to two other times I needed roadside assistance, I got AAA. They say the tow here is free up to 5 miles. I can increase the plan to 100 miles but I don’t think that takes effect for a while. Thus, I will find a competent repair facility and drive this within 5 miles and call for the tow. I actually drove into town and back with it this way, however when I looked at the photo I took, I think the less driving on it the better.
