I love love love it when it snows like this!

One of my best dates while 1st seeing my now wife was in N Conway, NH and it snowed like this all day. We walked around all the shops and had dinner at a nice little restaurant. It is so nice and peaceful but it doesn't pile up like a regular snow storm. It brings me back to that day everytime it snows like this.

Sorry this was so mushy.

 

Damn it! Now I have to order my wife those damn chocolates!

 

I like when it accumulates

 

Oh me too! Much better than bare trees and brown grass! But I'll take anything I can get.

 

Supposed to rain again on Monday. That's some BS

 

Same here...and leftover monsoon into Tuesday.
That'll put the lid on my shotgun deer season.

 

I bet if you go out there won't be much competition

 

Not much right now as it is.
I hunt nearby watershed ground and it's a split season.
I have "B" season. Started last Sat. and ends this Tues.
I've hunted a couple blocks of land so far and only run into 2 other guys.

 

Sounds good, just let me know and I'll see how much he wants

 

Not sure but my advice would be bring someone else with you, at least that way you can have someone wait with your truck versus having to park

 

Why?

 

Looks like I have 2 weeks to make a friend....

 

Uber will be your friend for a low rate, and then not ask for things later on.





But hey, I'm a little anti-social in real life

 

Very funny sir haha..just a thought..

I'm eager to put some miles on these. I realized after I ordered them that they are 6 pounds heavier a tire than the Michelins we had on there, but given that the Michelins were at 4-5/32nd after only 35,000 miles and these tires are rated for 65,000 miles, whatever I lose in fuel economy will be made up for in longevity. I was surprised that I could feel the weight somewhat immediately as I did not change load range on the tire. These are actually also the OEM tire size for a 3G Limited.

I do love how they look on the Jeep aesthetically, so we will see how they ride and wear as the miles go on them. I'm hoping the 3 snowflake rating means they're better than the stock Michelins as Amy had a few instances where they slid more than she was expecting on ice.

 

Those are the kind I’m considering putting on mine.
How much should I expect to pay for each, about?

 

I paid $189.00/ea plus mounting and install. My local shop beat Tire Rack by $5.00 a tire.

 

Hey @Noelie84 I found a use for that jut in my house!


Lets me get in closer when I have the forks on the tractor. My wife really is amazing to have known that far in advance

 

I had those on my Tacoma a while ago. The traction was excellent in just about any weather but they kept cupping and got loud as they aged. I couldn’t make them wear evenly but the traction was always really good.

 

Did you have the AT3 or the AT3 4S? My understanding is the 4S is a new design compared to the older AT3.

I’m usually pretty good on tire maintenance and keeping tabs on everything so we will see what happens. The Michelins wore dead even so I’m confident in the alignment setup on the Jeep for right now at least.
