Get rid of those General Americraps! They are suck junk! You will be much happier in the handling/looks department with a better tire!.........

What is this "ice and snow" that you speak of?

what are you smoking?

I don't know about your truck, but I have brakes on all 4 wheels... so I have both 4 wheel drive AND 4 wheel stop.

Since we're talking snow here, I'll mention that I just got new tires last month - Firestone Destination A/Ts (stock size on Factory 18s). I have to say I am very very impressed by how well they handle on snow. Both loose snow and hard pack snow. Every road around here right now is hard-pack snow and I have very good traction in 4WD (no weight in my bed and only 1/4 tank of gas right now). My garage is on an un-plowed alley and we have about 14 inches of snow and I haven't had any issues in the loose snow either.
