    I'm sure they're sex in the mud, but when it comes to year-round performance, the Duratracs take the cake, especially in Wyoming. I can't afford another accident due to shitty tires on the snow/ice.

    Oh idk..i haven't really thought about it but i think ill just leave thursday morning and drive all day. It'll depend on my lil bro and if my mom will let him skip school for it. Otherwise i might just take two days for shits and giggles :p haha

    And i love the KM2s for sure. But the duratracs are great as well...plus cheaper..i just don't like goodyear after my last set of tires haha

    i dont know man..thats i driving thing too. I have never had super big issues with them. But they aren't great on ice that is for sure. Wish mine where siped as i guess that makes em good on ice. But again. If driven correctly then its not that big of a deal. But it makes sense. I mean the Duratracs are basically an aggressive AT, km2s are aggressive MTs

    I'd have to agree that the Duratrac is probably the best "year-round" tire.
    Though I have a dedicated winter set and then MTs for everything else.:cool:

    you're coming down through riverton-rawlins right? there's really nowhere for you to meet up w/ jon and I unless you come thru Laramie. but that'll add a few hours on for ya. it's only a 7.5 hr drive for us.

    that would work for you and I, but it would add another couple hours on for Monte if he came thru Laramie. go to google maps and see. we can just head down he 230 from Laramie and go thru warden and kremling and then hit i-70

    General driving and wheeling it's just fine. I was actually getting 22mpg with the lift, 33s, and all the crap I have hanging off the truck. High altitudes (8,000+) the 2.7L begins to really struggle.
