Beardface, the guy at the tire place told me that someone just had some duratracs replaced after less than 15k.


I've read a few concerning reviews online about the sidewall issues too. Never know how much to trust online reviews since lots of people go online to complain about issues and a lot of the satisfied people just go on with their lives without posting any review.

Get the 295/60/20 trails or 275/65/20 toyo mts. I'll trust you when you give medical advice and you trust me on the tires.

Thanks for accepting this advice - OB

You bastards would never make it on Internal Medicine rounds. We can argue/discuss over nothing for hours.

Why do yall want MT's on a daily driver? Not trying to flame, just wondering. Yeah they look better, but they're loud, heavy, expensive, etc.

Like the look and would like the performance when I do want to have some fun or do some work. I like the idea of the Trail Grappler or Duratrac since they're kind of hybrids of MT and AT

The MTs that have been mentioned are fairly tame and closer to an AT than a true MT. At least that is my opinion. I would never want a Super Swamper or a Mud Grappler as a DD but a trail grappler or Toyo MT ain't nothing.

Eta, I think you're gonna be bitting off more than you want to chew with the 295/65/20. Also, keep in mind the tire weights. They have a lot to do with how sluggish your truck becomes. A huge weight difference between 275/65/20 and 295/65/20 for only 1" difference.

Do it, those cameras are cheap.

A DirectTv installer keyed my truck. It took a an allover repaint to make it right. I left the little Serbian a bad review.

He is still drawing breath b/c I wasn't %100 sure it was him and b/c I promised my wife.

You can get security cameras pretty cheap. Have you had any problems before in your area?

Good looking truck. I wish I could have justified the extra $$ to go up to the 250 b/c they're really nice. I'd say a better set of tires and bedliner is a good start for accessorizing.

Beard, you're basically the guinea pig since our (my dads but mine in a year) trucks basically look identical. Get it all done and hopefully it turns out just how I want it.
