Couldn't make it tonight - the Monte's front wheel almost decided to take a vacation on my way up Rt 4 coming home from work. Somehow, two lug nuts and studs sheared off completely, and the other three were loose enough that I could thread them back on by hand. I really caught it just in time; another mile could have been real bad. Had to call AAA to flatbed it home. And, since me and my father-in-law are in the middle of rebuilding the kitchen, I have no time to fix it. So, she's back to sleep for another few weeks in the garage.
