    I have had the trail grapplers for 2 years they have been good but I will try something different possible next go round. They got harder and louder late in their life.

    Finally got my phone to talk with my computer (didn't know there was a Windows 8.1 and USB 3.0 issue; USB 2.0 worked fine), and here's an in-camera (LG G4) HDR shot of the Sept. 30th sunrise:

    Sunrise%209-30-16_2ac8386745af1129c0ef8837cb9b78020c649108.jpg

    And as the sun got higher (not HDR):

    And somewhere in-between when I was playing with the manual settings:

    I already told him he could have it. :burp:

    Unless he has upgraded since i last talked to him, which I'm guessing not.

    You're just jealous.

    I thought I felt a disturbance in the force.

    So...any chemistry or were there major red flags like her comparing Colorado to Tahoe?

    So I have an issue with an off-road shop that I would like advise from y'all. About a year ago I installed my toytec BOSS 2.5 C/Os and fox 2.0 rears. I did not feel comfortable installing extended SS brake lines, so I had a local shop do it. Well I have not been under the truck since, but after doing the axels and wheel bearings I noticed that there are no SS extended lines on the front or rear. Is this something that I can make the shop pay for and do? Or is it my fault for not checking their work? I feel I shouldn't have to make sure they do what they say they are going to.

    She got a free dinner, I got a hug. :anonymous:
    Not expecting a call back. I'm not calling back either. Honestly, way too far to commute for that sort of thing. She was cool though, we did have a lot in common.

    Bottom line, at this age, both parties generally own a home and are financially stable, not willing to re-locate is a common problem.

    I've been loosely following this but if you are talking about the ST Maxx I got mine in 255\85\16 from discount tire in Boulder in December.

    Is the G2 new? All I know is I had Terra Grapplers and I would not recommend them for snow. In my opinion they are to wide for how light our trucks are and don't bite into the packed snow. I had to use four wheel drive to get moving because they would just spin on everything but a downhill. I even got stuck in a McDonald's drive through! It was ice but nobody else seemed to have troubles. They did surprise me in the dirt and mud on more than one occasion though.

    Much happier with the ST Maxx in the snow. I rarely used four wheel drive after switching, unless I'm in deep stuff. So far I think they have out performed others that I have wheeled with in the snow but that also comes down to what psi everyone is running. Everyone seems scared to go below 15psi :notsure:

    You sure they are not SS? Mine are black and at first glance you wouldn't be able to tell a difference.

    I have been running 10psi.

    Discount promised me they would return the tires if I didn't like them. I think you may be right though, could be too wide. I don't like Discount, so I'm gonna make them jump through hoops to earn my money. :D
    After looking at the 17" sizes, I'll prolly go that way with the ST Maxx. 285/75R17

    100% positive. I got the ones from the ongoing group buy that are braided and the ones installed on the truck are the originals
