Both the Fresno PD and Sheriff have horses here. I know this because the stables are less than a mile east of me. On the way to Winco I would pass right by them. They have a training area there as it serves the K9 corps as well. They are used mainly for parades and customer relations events. The last time I talked to them at a <acronym title="Page Ranking">PR</acronym> event I was told the officers are all regular duty but spend one day a week with the horses. Either training them or just riding them around the training facility. They have several horse trailers, small 2 horse ones, and large 6 or 8 horse ones. Several pickup trucks too. Not sure what make and model they are. I think they are Fords, but I'll have to check the next time I go to Winco. Which won't be for a while since my POS is acting up.
I went to the grocery store, and spent way too much. I'm still convinced that they are liars, cheaters, and *****s. The store charged me $90 for a roast. Who is actually paying over $300 for a roast beef? They marked that on the receipt, to make me think that I saved over $200. For over $300, you can go out for a meal at
This is how I cook beef and lamb. Works every time with the simple math. 500 degree Fahrenheit. 5 minutes a pound. Leave it for a few hours after turning the oven off. I've been doing it like that for years. Now there's a YouTube video.
Death wobble now that I had the tire(s) aired up at Les Schwab. So, now I am looking into tire options. I researched the death wobble issue on the forums, and the culprit in most cases is tire related. And since Les Schwab informed me that three of the four tires are too old to repair, they could only air them up. They did tell me that they have a tire similar to the left front which is the only one new enough to keep on the truck, but they want $181 for just one. So, I told them just air up the tire (I went there because the right front tire was low on air) and I'll drive it home. On the way home whenever the truck gets up to 35-40mph it starts the death wobble, and I have to slow down until it stops. My first idea was to wait until January and buy two used tires from one of the multitudes of used tire shops in the area, and have them installed in the front, then in February do the same for the two in the back. However, now I am thinking of using Affirm and getting two new tires from Tire Agent and paying over time. The cheapest I have found is $170 a tire, and with tax it comes to $373. Shipping is free, but of course once they get here, I'll have to pay someone to install them, mount them and balance them. My thinking on this is that I will have brand new tires in the front that match compared to two used tires that may match each other or be totally different brands and tread patterns. The drawback of course, is that I will be paying a much higher price for them because of the interest charged. Another option is to buy four used tires at once and have all four replaced on the truck, keeping the left front as a spare in the bed of the truck until I can get another wheel for it. There is no spare tire under the bed, and no tire holder for one either. I can get used tires for $50 each. So, for $200 I have all four replaced, but with the caveats already mentioned.
I would look at America's Tire and Wal*Mart. They both have brick and mortar tire shops that do the installation, and can service your warranty. Plus they will also rotate tires, repair leaks, remove nails....... And I don't think there's any shipping charge for tires in their stores. I learned a long time ago that online tires are great until you have a problem. Even a minor nail in the tire is a problem trying to get the warranty to pay for the repair.
Interesting. Less than $100 per tire at Walmart. Of course, that is for 235's not 245's, but still. I talked to Javier at the corner repair shop, and he can get me 4 tires for $550. According to Tire Agent the F150 comes with 235's or 255's, but if you click on F150 with the towing package it says only one size, 245-70r-17. So, technically, I could choose any one of the three. Since 245's are on it right now, that is what I will replace them with.
What tire size is on your door sticker? That's the size the truck came with, and the speedometer is accurate to.

Most of my death warble came from the Rotors being warped, this was on a 350 and 250 diesel which tows heavy , tires come into play as well if separated and or shocks , have them look into ball joints and tie rod ends , that warble if bad enough puts a lot of pressure on all those parts
In most markets, cable television has to have public access. Essentially, people can produce whatever they want, and place it inline to be broadcast. For many decades, a friend of mine hung her head in shame because her Dad had a public access cable show.
Here's a look at what public access cable offers. City hearings, Gay USA, and This Week In White Supremacy.
The sticker on the door frame says 255 70R 17.
Scott, there is no way the cause of the death wobble is warped rotors. The reason I know this, is because before I took it to Les Schwab there was no death wobble. I was enjoying the truck after replacing that 4x4 solenoid. All they did was air up one tire. The right front. So, it has to be tire related. And to be safe I want to get all four replaced eventually. It looks like I can get two new one's next month and then two more the following month. I really don't want to use Affirm to do it but might not have a choice. I could buy two using Affirm and wait a couple of months to pay them off, then do it a second time.
Maybe Santa will surprise me. LOL.
Jim in my case it was definitely the Rotors , but tires and front end parts contributed to any wabble, just making suggestions for your warble because I’m not in the driver’s seat or testing it , hopefully you’ll get it figured out .

We have gotten our tires from America's Tire for at least 30 years, and they have never done us wrong. My SO was once on a solo trip to the south part of the Sierra, and got a nail in a tire that required replacement. There was no nearby America's Tire, so she got a replacement to get her home. When she got home, they replaced the limp-home tire as part of the warranty. They also rotate/balance for the life of the tires.
