When my MIL and sFIL were in town, we were talking about the car. He asked, "Is it AWD?" I said yes. 

He said: "Well then you'd better be really diligent about tire rotation... Because the front wheels are pulling, while the back wheels are pushing."

:smiley_confused1:

Posting here b/c I've learned long ago that sometimes explaining why someone is wrong is not worth it. 

(Note: tire rotation is still important... But that's not why.)

Yeah just the original reason for rotating your tires is sufficient reason to rotate your tires...

By logical extension, would he say that a 2WD vehicle does NOT need its tires rotated?

Also, if the front wheels are pulling and the back wheels are pushing, wouldn't the vehicle....I dunno.....just, kinda, break apart in the middle?

He's an interesting guy. Non-golfers won't get this, but he just wouldn't agree with me when he said that with driver you want to hit the ball with topspin, and I said "uhhh... No. Just... No."

He's like AI. Very confident. Even when he's completely FoS...

He's probably a good guy.  Just needs a swift kick to the nutz
