Default Warning! NO NIGHT DRIVING!

...and for good reason too! There is an outdoor basketball court behind my house. Also a great spot to screw around with the truck. I was sitting here, bored so I figured "what the hey!?" I have the lights on my truck so why not go out there and mess around? Well, I'm driving and flipping and crashing and all that fun stuff and the lights look cool in the dark! Then I notice my f150 is running all crazy and making all these terrible noises. I drive it to my feet and pick it up and count..1, 2, only 3 wheels! I'm like "oh crap" so I start looking around for the wheel. Went in the house and grabbed the flashlight. No use. It's gone.DON'T DRIVE IN THE DARK!

I am using the 2/56 metal nuts from RS. I usually do a quick check and make sure they're all on tight. I forgot to check them earlier. It's a good thing they come 40 to a pack! I am going to try to find the tire in the morning. Hopefully those punkass 8 yr olds don't find it and gank it!

ALL IS WELL! I found the wheel about 30 ft away from the b-ball court in the grass. Thank you all for your concern!

LOL, The grass here is southwestern Oklahoma this time if year is dormant. In daylight the wheel stuck out like a sore thumb in the dry, brown grass.

good thing you found it. if u think that ur alone ur not, i lost my rim and tire at some guys house. it rolled pretty far in it. i could find it after school because it was after school in really really bright day light. when i found it the wheel gave me a freakin ice kind of coldness.(it rained last night and it was -4 degrees) sorry if this was offtopic
