    I agree with whoever commented about you needing a tire cage when airing up those tires because i used to air up truck tires without a cage too before a couple months ago when a good friend of mine was in his shop blowing up tractor trailer tires without a tire cage and it killed him a couple months ago when it exploded and damn near tore him in half from the explosion.

    • @straybullitt
      @straybullitt 7 месяцев назад +3

      We have 100s of millions of miles of power lines in this country. Much of the new construction places power lines underground, and some of the existing lines are being buried.... But it is going to take a very long time before even a reasonable fraction of the infrastructure gets buried, and in some areas, it never will.
      The one advantage to having the wires and transformers strung on poles is that it is relatively quick and easy to do repairs when necessary 🤷‍♂️

    • @ontheroadagain4773
      @ontheroadagain4773 7 месяцев назад +1

      @@straybullitt Yes, but a network above the ground is more prone to be damaged, Underground cables and transformers in steel boxes (park transformers) usually don't get damaged by storms or thunder, which also means less power failures.
      Where I live we got our power cables buried and park transformers installed more than 4 years ago and not a single more than 15 minutes long disruption has happened since then. Before that almost every storm caused trouble, In the worst case, we could have to stay without electricity for days but usually "only" for a few hours.
