    I thought that looked familiar. This is from 2011. Coming back from our Rock Creek adventure.

    I would have thought you would know better than that. :) I just haven't noticed your rig. Geeze...I don't know that I have ever seen this one. Of course, I am going to spot Jeeps a little quicker though...sorry. It is not a Jeep thing for me...it is more like a "likes to do what I do" thing so please don't take insult...I just don't know your rig. Hell, most of the Jeeps don't wave back to me either. lol

    Stop by the shop sometime and say hello.

    We can still talk if you want...

    Haha I know just giving you a hard time. Everytime I actually drive by and see your jeep at work I want to stop and say hello but im usually running around from one place to another for my family. I wave at pretty much anyone who has a sweet rig. Whether its jeep, toyota, or whatever.

    Lol thats ok that truck is still running around. My buddy has it, although he doesn't take care of it as much as I did so I have to yell at it from time to time.

    haha I had no problem with the speed. Bumper would have stopped me just fine, you may not have been so happy then.

    Alright, I need some tire input from some MT folks. I ordered the MTR Kevlars about a month ago and the shipping date kept getting pushed back. I finally called today and they said they're probably going to be on back order till at least March. What do you guys all recommend? I need something fairly aggressive, I tend to pop 1 or 2 sidewalls a year :rolleyes: But also need something that doesn't ride like a super swamper 75+ down the highway.

    Yea can't beat the MTRK side wall. Seen 3 Km2 pop side walls.

    The Toyos have big side wall too but are a heavy tire.

    the Cooper ST Pro is an option, so are the RT03 hankooks.

    I've had the km2s and wasn't all that impressed with their wear and how they did in the snow. Ya pretty bummed on the crazy back order on the Kevlars... Leaning towards cooper stt pros or the st max, and the ko2. Anybody run the coopers?

    Then don't get the MTR if how they do in snow is a priority. They are worst than the KM2s. Amazing offroad in the dry but scary in the snow and ice.

    Cooper ST Maxx may be a choice you want to look at.

    oh right i forgot about yours.

    Poor choice of lines...

    Rubbing up against sharp rocks can pop any tire.
