    It's doing pretty decent, the garage is right at the heaters max rated square footage. After an hour and 15 minutes the garage is pretty comfortable. You could work in pants and a t shirt. I'm happy considering it's.. feels like -5 outside

    The maps clearly illustrate you’re wearing shorts. The upper map shows the radiant heat loss while the lower shows the real feel effects. Think I’ll fire up the grill & see if there’s a difference….for science. :)

    Well that sucks... :annoyed:

    Just installed a set of the same tires on my truck about a week ago. It seems balanced up to 90mph. We did have some light snow the other morning and I'm happy to report no more getting stuck like the factory Firestone's :laugh:

    I had a previous set of Coopers that had a balance issue; sometimes you just get one that has issues.

    This set I got now is perfect. One wheel/tire doesn't even have any weights on it o_O

    Yesterday was close to 40 so I took advantage of it to scrape down infront of some rickety swing out doors I have on an outbuilding.

    I was going to dig out and replace the frost heaving dirt with stone this summer but I didn’t get to it :anonymous:
