    I have BridgeStone 265/60 18 on my Tacoma now .
    I am looking for a good All season tire which is good on Highway and great on country back roads.
    I would like a quite tire . Plus a long life tire 60 K would be great .
    Tell me what all your experiences have been .Thanks again TW

    Check out the Bridgestone Dueler Revo 3's. They are pretty quiet compared to some tires, Im happy with my set. Im getting too old for all that tire noise.

    Yes they have been pretty good. Decent aggressive tread. Just a bit noisy but not terrible.

    I have Yokohama Geolander AT G015. They ride super quiet on highways. They look wider than the original Bridgestone of the same size (spare tire). These came with the truck when I bought it.

    I've been running 265/75/16 Cooper AT3 4s since December.
    They are quiet and amazing in the rain.
    65k tread warranty.
    They just don't have a very aggressive look but thats ok paid $626 installed at Discount Tire with lifetime balance and rotation then went next door to Tire Discounters and got 5 year alignment for $170 after coupon.

    I really like my wildpeaks. I’ve had good experience with toyo open country’s as well. Both quiet and good in the snow.

    I agree with @Jacked Burton .....get the Cooper AT3 4S. They’ll be a great all around tire and be killer in the snow when it comes. My family in PA are getting them next

    +1. Great way to compare many tires, in your correct size, on a number of different attributes. Crowd-sourced reviews with millions of miles of experience for most tire models. Plus you get the adding bonus of pricing info included as well.

    I've had the Cooper AT/3's on several vehicles. They are probably the most tire for the dollar, but maybe a little more aggressive tread than I think you want. Not a loud tire, but there are quieter ones. Not the best riding, but for the money acceptable, I COULD have gotten 55,000+ miles out of mine, but I'm not one to drive them down to the last legal 1/32" of tread. And the gravel roads I drive on wears out tires faster than pavement. If I've gotten 50,000 out of them and it is getting late in the Fall I replace tires before winter snows and muddy dirt roads. For what I do with my trucks I'd go back to them and would recommend them. Check Coopers website periodically if you're not in a hurry. They run $50-$70 rebates several times each year. I bought a set a few years ago in October to get the rebate, but didn't get them mounted until February.

    But I think a little less aggressive tread will suit your needs better. If you can afford them Michelins tend to get the most miles, ride the best and are aggressive enough off road and in the snow for what you claim you want to do.

    I also have the Bridgestone Dueler Revo 3’s. I previously had the Revo 2’s and had no problem, got ~50-55k out of them. I drive mostly highway/city stuff and I think the 3’s seem to be wearing a little faster than 2’s but I could be imagining it too.

    A little of this and a little of that.
    I’m happy with the Michelin M/S2’s on my 2011 DCSB.
    They’re quiet, and I have almost 60K miles on them and they look like they’ll go 80K easy.
    I keep an eye on my air pressure and rotate every 5K miles.

    I've had balancing problems with Faulkin Wildpeaks. I have heard some people love them but it has not been my experience.

    I went with Goodyear Wrangler Trailrunner AT and have been pleased with them.

    You may find your tire choices to be somewhat limited due to the 18” rims. The choices doubled when I switched to 17” rims.

    Another vote for the Yokohama Geolander AT G015. Pretty great performing tire for the use the OP described. Very good in snow and ice, which is a consideration for a NY truck. I'm not sure about the 60K life though.

    I do not have experience with quiet tires as I run ATs on my Taco, but I have run Michelin’s on all my suvs and loved them.
