    i think Toy had Dynapros on him when i bought him. But that was 18 years ago so maybe my memory is a little fuzzy :laugh:
    I like the tread on the Kuhmo's and the Dynapro's are similar-ish

    if i go through a no name 3rd party on walmart.com i can get some coopers but i'm not sure about the tread

    no, Baby Toy is an automatic. But he's been pampered by me and dad since 2007 when I first bought him so he's a good truck.

    I run the coopers now. I like them but can’t comment on snow traction as I haven’t gone out in it this past winter. #retired_life

    It’s just rain. I know that being from SoCal, you’re not used to it but it’ll be okay.

    i dont drive that much in the winter either since my commute is usually done in my PJ's and slippers :laugh: But I do need something that will handle the winter crap because even getting to the grocery store can be an adventure here!
    well we haven't retrained you so what the hell are you talking about?

    Have the groceries delivered if it’s bad out ;)

    Edit: retraining? Who’s retraining? We’re too old to be retrained - set in our ways

    I run Michlen Defenders, ice and snow they work pretty good, good on the MPG’ s . I call them my old man tires. I’d take your truck in a heartbeat . I used to have one very similar. Don’t ever sell it !!

    I've had the Dynapro AT Extremes on my Taco for a year and a half, they are a pretty decent tire. They handle wet ( rain) very well, they do ok in the snow, dry dirt/ hard pack, great dry road manners. Not too noisy, you don't have to raise your voice in the cab. They don't like mud very much.

    I've been hit by lightning. More than once. That zapper isn't even enough to excite me.
    I have thought about volunteering for one of those demo days where the police taze you.

    I get rapped about every 6 months. Being an electrician for 35 years I'd say "Crazy Leg" (277) hurts the most, depending on the load. Lightning or tazer? No thank you.
