Most people around here run them. My buddy just put his second set on. He got almost 45k out of the first set, and they were used. If he would have rotated them he could have gotten 50k. They perform very well for a MT. The stick really well in the rain. They pull through anything we went through. Not very loud on the highway. Around here a set of 33's go for around $500.

As soon as I find a set of 17" oem ford wheels for cheap I'm putting a set of the buckshots on my truck.

What about 18"? I am just about set on buying a set of BFG A/T 305/65/18 whne my stockers wear out, but the price difference could surely sway me into some Maxxis tires. Any prices?

I believe maxxis only makes one size tire in an 18". There's only a 275/65r18 in the buckshot, and a bighorn don't come in the 18".

I have them and they doing pretty good. Its basically a great cheap MT that if properly taken care of will last just aslong as the more expensive tires.
