Razel - at those speeds that's 2 hours drive to get out of the desert to a tire dealer? Did you sustain any damage to the wheels or undercarriage?
No damage other than to the tire. I honestly don't recall hitting something "that hard" (but, obviously I did), so the trip out was a bit longer than the one coming in. I was far more cautious on where the tires were going, and what was passing underneath. Sometimes the best path was driving on the wrong side, but with traffic at an almost non-existent state, it was all good. The tire with the broken sidewall barely looked like it was low on air, let alone "flat".
