    Check out the General Grabber AT's. I had them on my 02 Tacoma. I had about 45k miles on them when I traded the truck and there was still plenty of life left in them. I have never had a set of BFG AT's that wore even, they all cupped. I have not notices that issue as much with the BFG MT's, just the AT's.

    The deal at my local Firestone Dealer (at least the one I went to) for buy 3 get one free was for the Revo, not Revo 2, and they did not have the size I wanted in stock, so I got the Dueler A/T 695 for the same deal. I am very happy with those, they are not quite as aggressive looking as the Revos, but seem to fit my needs perfectly, and definitely a major step up from the stock Dunlops...

    Honestly I forgot about her a while back, not really interested anymore.

    Yeah that's what I was told about the deal. The revo 2s are replacing the revos thats why they are doing the deal on them

    Im getting there......
    Hey I have the dueler revo A/Ts new this year from stock rugged trails im really liking thier comparable grip and also the mpg increase definately noticable. Believe it or not I think I can actually accelerate faster with them. As far as grip in adverse conditions in 4x4 high I never slip on snow even when stopping fast and kicking the abs in a little no fish tailing their really nice. One thing to note is the small ridges are far more durable and prevelant on these than the BFGs the little groves like these keep ice control awesome!!!

    Update:
    I've been tryin to get a hold of the Revo 2 but they are on a national order and they won't be available until about January. So I decided to go with a diff brand, checked out a few different tires and I like the Yokohama ATS. They have a very similar tread pattern to the Revo 2 and seem to have just as good of ratings as the Revo 2. Should be picking up a set of 2 tomorrow and prob the second set of two within a week.

    I printed out an online quote from Firestone for Revo 2s and I'm going to take that along with the buy 3 get 4th free coupon and see what I can come up with. Wish me luck!

    Oh and thanks for all the advice in the thread. I'm not the OP but you guys sure helped me out as well.

    Has anyone on here tried both of them out. I think it would be hard to choose a tire or give a true comparison without trying them both. I will need to upgrade my tires and deciding between the two since they seem popular on the forum.

    Tricoma, I haven't but a good friend of mine first had the All-Terrains then purchased and installed the REVOs (not the REVO 2s) and swears by the REVO 2s.

    Based on his advice I'm going with the REVOs.

    If you can get a set of the REVO 2. I would get them. They are worth the $$. I have had mine for about a month now, and IMHO are the best tires that I have owned. Great traction in the rain (no snow in FL). You can feel the road the whole time (have not hydro planed). I can't say enough about the tire.

    I'm sure the OP has already purchased but wanted to comment. I had a revo blow out with a 1000 lb load. Only had less than a year of wear. The sidewall is WEAK. This was a revo and not a revo2. The BFG TA/KO has a 3-ply sidewall and that is what I changed to.
    So my conclusion, right or wrong, is that the revo is not good/ BFG TA/KO is better if you plan on carrying a full load.
