Yowza she's a beauty

 

The P rated Toyo's I have are only 2 lbs more then the stock Bridgestones. Rolling resistance is not as good as the highway tread tires. The higher end F-250's come with LT275x65x20 Toyo AT2's now...I saw a few on the local dealers lot.

 

908 miles on a 2004...wow!

 

Couldn't pay me to run Goodyear's on a pickup. My dad worked 30 plus years for NHTSA tire division. Total Junk and tread separation is very common.

 

Just think...years ago Goodyear and Firestone made some of the best tires on the road.

 

U.S.Royal..Fisk...Gillette...Armstrong...Dayton... Sebring are tires from Bluejay and my era!

 

B F Goodrich, Firestone

 

Yep, now seems like the Japs are doing better at making tires than we are. Nitto and Toyo's are hard to beat. That's why I went with the Nitto's on mine. 75k warranty which bettered a comparable Michelin tire by 5k and the price was substantialy cheaper.

Goodyear has a few tires that aren't too bad, but are their "higher end" it seems.

Those tires compete in NHRA Top Fuel and Funny car, as are the Eagle GT series.

lol

 

Michelin is a French company and I think bought out BFG a few years ago. Both make decent truck tires.

 

The top Goodyear tires are not bad...I had great Goodyear tires over the years and some that were not so great.

 

Got the yard work done before the rain starts late tomorrow. The Toro zero-turn started up easily but the battery on my atv barely cranked the engine so that gave me an excuse to ride afterwards. Had to air up the tires on both machines from sitting in the cold garage. The big Polaris wanted to roll pretty bad once it cranked so I took it up to about 50 mph for an instant and the engine ran great. 850cc 70 hp twin cylinder that likes to be ridden hard every once in awhile!

 

Love my Polaris 800cc. Only atv I have seen to come with dual exhaust

 

Won 8 bucks on a 3 dollar powerball ticket.

 

Two pipes coming off one muffler counts as duals?
