    The worst part is, I don't think we've hit bottom yet for the valuation of a barrel (WTI). I feel like I'll be in NS a lot more often in the next few months haha.

    That would be awesome!

    I'm Ok with a bit of a slowdown. Just not too much of one...

    And H2S is pretty easy. It's just a whole day, so that's a bit of a pain in the ass.

    I was up a logging/quarry road and it was pretty slick. Trucks covered in mud lol any actual trails would be muddy as hell

    Winters? What was wrong with those bfgs? I ran them for years and never had a problem in the snow. My brother used to run them on his plow truck too

    I run my BFG MTs only during spring - fall, dedicated winter tires for me right now, had I had such a thing in 09, I'd still have my swb trd sport. One accident was enough for me, I can wait til spring to offroad again. On a side note, are any of you on BackCountry4x4Club.ca? Nova Scotian's only

    They came with the truck when I bought it. I put them on steel rims so I can refinish my alloys. I'll always have winter tires for the truck. 285s will suck in the snow.

    MTs are a completely different story than the ATs. I would never run mud tires in anything except mud.

    Probably, they'll need people with many different backgrounds to support our expansion, mechanics, engineers, labourers, now would be the time to get your name in there.
