My oil burning furnace started sucking air (again) so I decided to head to Home Depot to get some thread sealant. I don't get 200 ft from the drive way before I hear a weird thumping noise and get a tire pressure warning. In the mirror it just looks like a leaf but when I hop out and check I see the horror below. I manage to get back in my driveway with about 8 psi left. At least swapping the spare on wasn't too bad.

What exactly is that, a branch?

Be happy we have real spares. My other cars don’t.

Yep a branch. No idea where it came from or exactly how a branch this thick managed to puncture the tire.
