    In the movie "Hurt Locker," BFG Rugged Fails can be seen on the FORD Excursion; driven by some Special Ops Team.

    Does this mean BFG Rugged Trails model will have trouble keeping up with consumer demand?? ;):D

    Mine were grippy for 30k. I managed to run them all the way to 60k (at the wear marker) and just swapped them for a nice set of 245/75/16 long trails.

    The people who watched Hurt Locker? Since everyone follows Hollywood, maybe they'll get some BFG Rugged Fails when it's time to buy new tires??

    Doesn't BFG get some $$$ because they were in a way, advertised in the movie??

    :facepalm:Those poor bastards that will follow hollywood no matter what they do. We need to put out our own video on proper tires.

    Was the movie a documentary or a overpriced hollywood film? Documentary, no money for bfg. Otherwise bfg would of had to pay to be in the movie.

    It won 3 golden globe awards lol.

    I'm not sure if it's categorized into movie status or documentary status? It states it's an "independent film"
