‘burban is home again

So after spending the night in a Walmart parking lot, our Suburban is home in bed again. I’m pretty sure it’s a stuck brake shoe – as I rolled it off the truck that he came home on, the driver’s side wheel rolled – albeit squealing the whole time – but still, that’s a “good sign”. Considering a good samaritan who stopped by to help us out was actually driving around looking for some kid who broke into his truck, I didn’t sleep so good with him not in the driveway last night.

I’ll probably leave it until we get some warmer weather, then take the brake drum off and take a look-see. Hopefully nothing’s grenaded in there or whatever and I can free it up… Maybe some new brake shoes and spring kit or whatever, worst case scenario I’m hoping I might have to have the drum turned… Hopefully it’s not scored beyond all hope.

But yeah, it’s home now so I don’t have to worry about someone breaking into it, or it getting impounded, or whatever. On the bright side, the motor runs great. :(

    sounds like it’s time for a new car. even the now $5000 cars are pretty descent.
