That was a funny story. To bad it was true. I had a flat tire one time that took 9 days to change. It was a Ford Thunderbird (crappy one at that) we bought new. Had a flat tire at work. Called a gas station to change it. Could not get the lug nuts off. The tire had anti theft lug nuts. (Have you ever heard of getting your tire stolen?) Any how Ford had to tow it back to their dealership and order a special tool to remove the lug nuts. We only kept that car a year, it had all kinds of problems. Rear view mirror fell off, car wouldn't heat. Can't remember all the problems we had during our year of ownership.
