Alabama thread!

I do. It fits Icon's. Rob has one that fits a size smaller.

 

I'm not sure what size these are... Can't seem to get a reply from Toytec.

 

I can measure mine tomorrow night.

 

Took tomorrow off for the ducks again! Man I love my little sneak boat, something about heading out into the dark in a 13' boat

 

Thanks man, much appreciated!

 

Just met Tony Beets in the Amsterdam Business lounge.

 

Like "Goldrush" Tony Beets?

 

Exactly Gold Rush Tony Beets and Minnie too. Nice guys, we talked 7-8 minutes. Nothing about the show, just small talk about travel.

 

I was honestly just kidding man. If you don't intend on going off road the at2 or terra grappler will be awesome in the rain and from what I've heard decent in snow. Both have a great treadlife warranty too

 

How much does everyone's mpg go down in the winter? I'm looking at a solid 1.5 mpg loss in the cold at this point...

 

Mine went down about that much on my drive up I-65 the other day.

Usually get around 21-22 freeway, got 19 this time.

 

I sure wish I "usually" got 21-22 haha. I get about 17 typically and am now getting 15.5

 

Haha, to be fair, I'm 100% stock on the engine/drivetrain/tires still.

 

ah yes...21 is what I was getting at that point too. I mean...I'm basically stock?

 

Eventually I'll replace the Michelins that're on it now. Coworker of mine just bought those new Goodyears they came out with ("TrailRunner" I think?) for his Taco. They look good for folks like me who just use the truck for hauling and the occasionally county-dirt or farm road.

 

that's about right but I did this and regained almost all that's lost
https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/free-mpg-mod-maybe.349020/ I got a little mathy at one point but your an engineer so u can figure it out (a lot of variable assumptions on my part but still good estimates I think)


obviously if u are letting you truck run in the morning to warm up u are getting 0 mpg at that point and that hurts

 

hm, interesting. I don't let my truck warm up very much at all in the mornings. I'm really not worried about the mpg loss, I was just curious if everybody had it happen that much

 

Well that is a good price but it is a 4ply tire. It is up to you if want a 4 ply SL or a 10ply LT E load.

Check these out if you want. I just got these and they have RAVE reviews! Also, you get them in like 2 - 3 days! $188/tire!

Not sure if you need prime or not. If you do, I can help you out!

 

I'm all about that 10ply.

 

But I do go off road a lil bit I got a lot of trails by my house and I go some fishing spots you gotta go thru some thick shit to get to so I need something that performs well on all surfaces
