    The factory Densos are cheap and what were in there. If you don't want to get those then get NGK...more expensive and not really any benefit.

    No thats usually the 4x4's that avoid the mud first. :sorry:
    pre-runners are first to get stuck cuz we got more balls for the mud :mudding: jk jk.

    I havent checked around. Like Wolfpack said, tell them to give you the "Good guy" discount. They shouldnt be more than $3.00 or $4.00 each.

    I am getting close to plug time also. Aren't there some 100K mile plugs? That would be a benefit, although I am sure they probably cost lots more.
