Tire sensor saves the day!

My son called about 3pm today says "oil light is on". I asked what it looks like and he is describing tire sensor. I came home checked it out and found a decent size nail in the front tire. He's got a few sound tech jobs over the weekend and one tonight leaving at six. We just caught the tire shop and all is fixed. Without the sensor I don't think we would have noticed and with his buzy schedule it would have been a major pain, not to mention the chance of a blowout with the truck loaded with heavy EQ. So while I have been mixed about these things in the past, I'll now keep quiet.

good to hear

I'm a fan of them myself, except when it's time to change tires
