Maybe, he got lucky.

In 1983, I travelled from Salt Lake City all the way to Denver with a front end tire rod that was put on backwards by a Shell gas station that wrongly told a very naive traveller that it was on poorly to begin with and damaging the car's tires. We ended up being part of the cause of this Shell Salt Lake City gas station closing after the fight my father had with this gas station.

The mechanic at the gas station that I barely made it into just inside the Denver city limits said I was very lucky to get more than 100 miles with the tire rod on backwards. It had ruined both front tires.
