    Computer said 15.2 average coming back home from Albany. Mostly highway with some back roads at either end of the trip. Cruise was set at 73 the whole way. I'll fill the tank later and see what it actually is but these days the computers tend to be fairly close. Like Noel, I assumed I'd get 12 so I'm very pleasantly surprised.5C5D57AB-EF2C-491A-94E1-7F62D3E0A10B.jpg

    Jesus, you've even got almost the same color that I do :laugh:

    Here's that side shot you asked for, @Bridge4
    And a couple extras.


    Mmmm.... BFG's.

    BFG is one of the brands that I wish we carried at work; that and Cooper. I could careless about Michelin, Bridgestone/Firestone, Hankook, Nokian, etc. But having access to the BFG TA's and the Cooper Discoverers would be sweet.


    That'll probably depend on what the instructors make you do for that qualification. :spy: :devil:

    Good luck, and shoot straight!

    X2, so are Michelins, I'd be real happy with a set of those. The new Ferd has Continentals, we'll see how they do. They're a highway tire but have lots of siping so hopefully they do decent in the winter.

    If you get one, I highly recommend the quick release mounts that AMP sells. I have them in my truck and like them more than the ones that came with it.

    Holy wheel gap! Needs SO much more tire! Time to start searching for some Raptor take-off tires! Let's see if we can get that MPG into the single digits!

    EDIT: I really like the new F-250 though.

    Garage needed a sweep out so I fired up the old iron.
    Haven't ran her since last Fall. Pulled out the choke and pumped the gas a few times and she came to life.

    Hand calculated at 15.22 so the computer is dead on.
    I was thinking the same thing! I think it would actually help Highway MPGs also, it revs high at highway speeds so really, it’s just good economic sense to go with a bigger tire...

    So much gap because the payload is ridiculous, something close to 3,300 lbs... Murica!
    I love it so far!
