Did good for me working on a farm driving through muddy fields and flooded areas not recommended for real heavy mud though it is an at underperformed in the snow compared to other tires I have had in the past

These tires suck in the rain. I spun out doing 40 mph in a little bit of rain. Hit the guard rail and ruined two of my rims. Don't buy these tires if you like living. Mickey Thompson please save me!

This tire is friggin awesome. I never use my rear locker or winch on my 05 Taco. Threw these on it and it rips through peanut butter mud like nothing. They are great in snow which is normally the drawback with mud tires. Handles rocks well, especially with the side biters. The tires are overall a little stiff so I have to air down a little more than normal. I hear once they break in that they soften up. On pavement they do better than most mud tires. They are a little pricey but you get what you pay for. I would highly recommend them based on their great performance, and I have tried most of the companies on the market.

I've tried most of the mud companies out there and these are pretty damn nice. I threw them on my 05 Taco. They took forever to friggin wear out which is a good thing (but im a tire guy and love to get new tires so the wait was killing me). They do well in the mud and clear out with ease. The open shoulders grip rock pretty well. I only had an issue once when I ran over a huge ass nail that went through on the the side lugs so I had to plug it. Any other tire would have done the same. The center has a slightly tighter pattern which I think is why they last so damn long. The only hang up is in snow. As with any other mud tire they do okay. You cant expect them to hook up like velcro because no mud tire will. The deep snow is handled well with these tires. Its that 1 to 2 inches on pavement that can be scary. You just have to drive sensibly and you'll be fine. I would absolutely recommend this tire to anyone. The best thing is that you wont have other rigs with the same tire since everyone sticks to whats popular. Buy them, you wont regret it.

Bought my optima RedTop 11/05 for $105. After exactly 3 years, 11/08, it began getting weak so I took it in and they gave me a new one (they were selling for $150 at this point). Battery #2 died on 11/11. The dealer (CostCo) no longer carries Optima so they gave me a $165 cash for the replacement. Since these last me 3 years and I see the warranty is now nil after 3 years (no proration period anymore), I decided to pocket my profit and buy a lead-acid battery with a 30-month replacement/85 month proration. In Phoenix, AZ I can count on this lead-acid failing before the warranty is out.
I do believe these batteries are affected by heat. Being sealed is a nice feature but I'm not offroading so it is of little benefit to me. My experience is they are twice as good as a lead-acid battery in terms of their service life. Since they are twice the price of a lead-acid battery and last twice as long but no longer have a warranty that is twice as good, it doesn't appear to be the best value to me and I'm willing to return to the life of changing my battery twice as much.
