    Yeah I’m going to get a true gas mileage reading (depreciation) here in a week when I go to Breckenridge.

    The Mickeys are a good sticky tire off road no doubt.

    We had delamination issues with the Cooper ST.



    Edit: we test 10 sets of each on 3/4 ton GM trucks before contracts are awarded for tires every 2 years. Fleet of 150+ trucks in harsh mining conditions. Last 2 contracts have gone to BFG.

    When the inevitable Tacoma Turbo Diesel is released, I'll have two for sale. Unless it requires the use of DEF.

    Be aware your mileage will likely suffer there. Altitude and lots of inclines makes for poor mpgs

    Though it's a small town with like one road and if it's snow covered you won't be going fast enough to make a difference

    I have Grizzly lockers in the crawler and I really like them if you are looking for an auto locker. The unload is just a soft clunk not the bang like with a Detroit locker. Unsure if they are offered for your third member though.

    Not to be confused with the limited slip Chris is referring to.

    Since I ordered the Hidden winch mount, I had to pull the trigger on the winch (M8000s) and remote control pack today. This could be an exciting weekend in my garage!

    Yeah altitude will kill mpg for sure. I just meant by the 900 some odd miles to get there we can see what she does mpg wise.

    Hey ATX crew,
    What are people using for lugnuts on aftermarket wheels? I just got some Level 8's and the lug nuts they sent dont seem to have enough thread engagement. I need some with more length before the conical part. Thanks

    Good looking wheels. If you bought them brand new perhaps see if the company will send you the correct lugs? Worth a shot I would think. When I purchased my SCS wheels from @SCSPerformance they sent me lugs specifically for the wheels and my Tacoma.
