Title: How to Ruin a Day
Post by: Fredi Smith on September 01, 2015, 07:53:27 pm
Here's what happens when you have a blow out on your Jeep Grand Cherokee Toad, even with camera it was not noticed for several miles on a country road with no traffic.  Considering what happened to the rim not that much damage was done to the fender.

This is exactly the reason we bought a TPMS. So many others have had issues and noticed nothing until someone flagged them going past. My advice to every RVer who tows is to get a TPMS!

We had a swivel wheel trailer behind our fifth wheel with a motorcycle on it. We were on our way to Ajo Az on a two lane when my pressure pro system gave us the blowout beeping sound. Happened to be a near wide spot so I pulled over. Walked to the back of the fifth wheel expecting to see a blow out on the swivel wheel trailer. What I saw was the swivel wheel trailer a hundred yards or so behind us in the middle of the road. Thankyou pressure pro. Can't imagine what I would have thought had I discovered the swivel wheel and our motorcycle missing a hundred or so miles away.
