What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Not me, but keep me informed if you do a heated steering wheel mod...

 

Thank you.

They are 265/75R16 Firestone Destination MT2 tires on my factory 2017 SR5 wheels.



Tire pics below are not my own, obviously:














I'm 49 and have had Schnauzers since I was eight or nine years old. Super breed. Great personalities, super smart, no shedding and no allergy issues.




My parent's girls on the left (dark coats) and our girls on the right (salt & pepper coats).

 

Feisty looking tires. How are you liking them? How's the road noise?

As far as the dogs go... DAAAAWWWWWW!

My folks had a Schnauzer when I was a kid. I say it that way because it was always THEIR dog, though they said they were getting it for me. They spoiled it rotten.

Speaking of feisty, that little thing would take on a German Shepard without a second thought (and lose, of course). Don't know if that's true of the breed.

Dog HATED getting a hair cut, but would run to the mirror to see what he looked like when we got home. He'd even stand sideways to admire his profile.

 

Road noise isn’t bad at all.

I was surprised, actually, at how little noise they do make.

It’s a heavy E-rated tire and I’m certainly seeing a hit on my mpg. A lighter AT would likely be a better fit for my type of use.

I’m a big fan of these dogs. They are a huge part of the family and have been mighty fun to have.

 

Haven't posted on here in a while, but I put on new wheels and tires.

haha we're twins HAHAHA

 

Washed and Waxed. Also swapped out the Cabin Filter.

 

Looks great!!!!!!

 

Awwww!

 

Funny, just did mine too, the filter. Had a bit of a time with it. You would think that door would be marked "slide up". Gotta love the interwebs!

 

NO SHEDDING?! We are at work too long during the day to have dogs but that wont always be the case. I am always interested in breed characteristics and this is a great one! Not a fan of shedding. Love dogs however, so willing to deal.

 

WHAT IS THE NAME BRAND ON THAT MOUNT

 

I painted my shackle.
How many beers does this earn me?
For the record I don’t drink.

 

Cabin filter looks great! (I like it’s “wrapper” aka your truck too!)

 

two beers. domestic. i'll drink 'em for you.

 

No shedding and... minimal amount of drool.

Took care of a friend's Lab for a week. He'd stare at me eating breakfast every morning and there'd be two growing pools of drool on the kitchen floor, one from each side of his mouth.

(That dog left behind enough hair in that one week to make another dog out of.)

 

Yeah it takes a few steps to get at it lol.

Thanks!

 

I like them a lot so far. I didn’t notice any difference in cabin noise at highway speeds. It definitely affected my MPGs but I don’t daily the truck so it doesn’t bother me so much.

 

Thanks! It was a risk on my end but I had a hook up at a local shop for the paint job so I figure I try it out. Worst case scenario would have been just strip it and get it powder coated. Time will tell how the paint holds up in California highways with things hitting it and on the trails.
