Ted's new brakes

(This is a picture of Ted from the day I got him. Thank God there is not snow out now.)

Ted, ah, Ted. He had an expensive trip to the mechanics today. I noticed last weekend that the tire was bald in the front. And then the brake light was flashing on...and then, well, yesterday was scary. It was shaking really bad when I tried to brake hard on M6. So this morning, I went to Belle tire, because I had a coupon. A $10 coupon for a $750 brake job.

Here’s what my loan from the bank of Dad bought:

Two new tires with roadside warranty, nitrogen, alignment, two rotors, brake hardware kits, brake shoes, a brake fluid flush, and lots and lots of labor. But now my car stops. That’s a good thing!
