    Yup. found the towing mirrors thread on here. loved the look and hated the stock mirrors. total install price was 250. 200 for mirrors and 50 for defroster control. I will be towing a 32' Travel trailer this summer.

    I ordered my new TT and should be here at the end of march. here are some specs:

    Crossroads Sunset Trail Reserve
    ST27BH
    5400 Dry
    1990 Carry Cap
    720 Hitch Wt
    31'2" Overall Lenght
    10'6 Tall
    40 Gallon for Black, Fresh and Grey

    When i talked to the dealer they said I am well within my limits for towing. Then I called the yota dealer and they stated that the GCVW for the truck already has the passenger weight figured in. they figure 150 per seat belt, so there is 750 that is already figured in. I also have the Reese straight line dual cam sway control and wt dist hitch. I have a 2011 Double cab 4x4 with the towing package. At last on mine that gives the truck a class 4 hitch at 1000# tounge with wt dist. I also have the Prodigy P3 brake controller. Tell them what truck you have and they send the proper plug and play harness. took me less than 30 min to install. Hardest part is finding a good place for it. happy camping

    I've only had them out a couple times so I don't have the best comparison but I've been very happy with the mtzs in deep snow. I've gotten around much easier and stuck less often but that might just be because of the larger foot print and added ground clearance from going up in size to a 37 inch tire. I never really had a traction issue with the mtrs so I would say they both do excellent in deep snow. The side walls on the mtrs are too soft. The mtzs are a little more firm but they air down nicely. Once I get more miles on them I will have a better review.

    I was out hunting mountain lions, and was trying to cut fresh tracks. Came across this creek crossing and decided to give her hell.
