    eastern / north eastern Tucson... I know it's not that far, but not going to fight the traffic unless I absolutely have to :anonymous: Just as easy to bring a big bag of food.... haven't run out yet.

    That place is a madhouse...not as bad as El Paso, but way more than I like. I don't blame you one bit.

    I've been following that. This is a look we both like. This or the F5s.


    Someone on here but I don't know who.

    Around 6 ply would be good. They won't get a heavy workout except towing 3500#. May need to go 8.

    We have a Discount Tire here now plus our Sam's carries Michelin/BFG, and many others.

    That would have been my pick, too! But we like the new one, also. I'll just have stay on top of it when a batch drops.

    Just depends on what you're looking for. Yuma is pretty small with a decent amount of farm land compared to those other 2. Havasu is pretty uppity, but it's on the river. Never been there but the people that come down here from there act that way. I haven't been up north in a lot of years. I'd guess if I ever left here I'd go to Texas or New Mexico, but more than likely Texas. Lots of hunting and fishing there.

    Scs is a good vendor and is a great quality and lightweight product.
    They are building a warehouse do inventory issues should improve.

    I have been running wranglers for years, I upgraded to the Kevlar because of the sidewall cuts I get in the desert. Nice to get 60k out of an MT tire. But heavy and expensive.

    Better how? How often do you use them on the highway. How much snow. Ice? Type of terrain and how often you spend in it off road. Lot of variables. And the big one, how many miles do they last. Not rated but real life. I am the one that said BFG and Michelin are the same tire company ;)

    Been a lot of years now, wasn't long after I retired from the Navy and did consulting work for Michelin North American HQ in Greenville SC. Guess the 7 years non disclosure is up by now LOL. Was back when Clinton was going through the I did not inhale thing. I solved their technical issues and beat up on their French IT security team pretty good. After it was over one of the top executives in the hallway said to me that he experienced the 70's too, and he sure as hell did inhale and so did everyone else. He was a very sharp individual.

    Beautiful bacon wrap job!! I'd bet money they turned out pretty darn tasty :thumbsup:

    Congrats Kevin. I feel you are making the right move. Be prepared in the am for exit interview questions. Don't let them brow beat you.
