New Tires, Bent Tailgate....
I put it off for way too long but finally sprung for new tires on the 3/4 ton.
Good deal, from a shop I have dealt with for years for my work vehicles. I was doing a circle around the truck before I left the lot and found the tech had backed my truck into a tree branch, denting the gate enough that it will need to be replaced. The shop is fixing the damage, no problem there. The thing that pisses me off is the fact that the guy backed it in hitting the tree. Pulled it forward and told no one..... WTF, where is the integrity? Now off topic, I went up to 265 from 245. Can I or should I get that factored in on the trucks computer? 2004 GMC HD 6 liter gas.

Any guesses on the tire size/computer thing?
Went from a LT245-75r16 to a 265-75r16 load range E.

Don't know about fixing it, but your speedo is like reading 3.9% too slow
