    I bounce it offa stuff.
    Pic is a Duratrac with 30k on it. It's unreal how well they wear. They do a decent job clearing the slick clay we have in MD, are damn near silent on the highway, and handle great in winter weather (have some snow/ice certification too). I can't recommend them enough.

    I'm on the market for new tires and it's between these and KO2's. I'm pretty confident with bfg but wondering if you could compare the two and if these are any better than bfg?

    KO2 is more of a street tire. Duratrac, still considered an AT, is a much more aggressive design. It has much larger voids and deeper lugs, equalling better grip offroad. I've never owned KO2's, but they are a very popular tire also. Maybe someone can chime in with experience with the BFG's.

    Spent the day outside enjoying the warm weather. My friends and I meet up twice a year (spring, fall) for full detailing on our vehicles including claybar, wax, rainx, and full interior detail.

    Shiny!!!

    The gang.

    Did full inside detailing as well.

    Also installed @ImMrYo 's mirror bracket. Absolutely worth every penny!

    [​IMG]

    Also ended up drilling holes in my bedmat to fit the tonneau cover's drain hoses. Looks great!

    All-in-all a long but productive day. Nothing too crazy but happy with the work.

    Sorry for the pic sizes... cant seem to make them smaller.

    Does the TRD intake make it sound louder or anything?

    So is that pretty easy to install?
    What does this give you, temperature and compass direction constantly?
    That's sure be handy since you can't always count on having service for the head unit to tell you

    It relocates your mirror upwards so you have more of a view

    The wife gave me a key chain, I thought it was to big to carry around. I stuck it to the sunglass's comp.

    The mirror is the same as OEM. Its just the bracket itself that is changed. It relocates the mirror upwards towards the roof of the cab to get a better view. I'm 6' and the mirror at the original location was right in the way of my vision. Took me about 2 minutes to install. Just need a T20 torx screw.

    It's probably an HDR edit. Gives the photo more dramatics and contrast.

    I second that. I'm on my second set. Awesome rain tire and been great off-road as well. A well rounded tire for sure...:thumbsup:

    It looks like your bumper is set way too high! You might want to adjust it down so it's not in contact with the fenders! That's gotta be the culprit...
