What about on road but with good sand and snow performance?

I put BFG Rugged Terrains on my wife's 1500 LTZ 4x4. Liked the tread pattern for all weather and some off-road. Load Range E for pulling travel trailers and 50, 000 mile warranty. I had 3 sets of BFG All Terrains on my 2500HD 4x4 as I hunt. But I dont do rock crawling, they wear out quick and no warranty. Liked the Rugged Terrains for smooth ride and low noise so there is a set on Rugged Terrains on my 2500HD.

I'll probably go to Bridgestone AT Revos when I replace my OEM set. They provide a good mix of on and off road traction in my opinion.

I've never been unhappy with any Michelin tire I've got ever. Car, truck, and dirtbike. Thanks to an Accord running an 18 wheeler into my lane and me of the road. I just bought a replacement wheel (made the dented wheel a spare with a stock tire) and put two Michelin's on it. For only $10 more than the stock tire you get twice the quality. I always reference tirerack.com for ratings when shopping for tires, but with Discount Tire so close now I buy there anymore.

Had Bridgestone dueler at on my last 2 trucks. They were pretty good. I had around 60k miles on them when I sold my tacoma and they still had at least 60 percent tread. On my diesel dodge with load range e, they were toast after 65k miles.

 

I have seen Bfg at ko load range e with 65k miles on a silverado and hardly any tread wear. Almost went with those, but I wanted load range d on this truck. My dodge came with michelins on it. Nice tires, but I pulled them off a few months into owning that truck.

You didn't think it would be that easy did you? Im going with Nitto.

Loved my Nittos on my last truck. Erik be replacing these stock ones with Nittos the next time around.

      Mangoal or FitcamX OEM Dashcam?

      By MANGOAL · Posted

      Late reply, but yes—it works on the SLT trim. Compatibility comes down to the plastic shroud shape behind your mirror, not the trim badge itself. On the SLT with auto-dimming, it uses a plug-and-play Y-harness off the mirror/rain sensor power, so no need to run wires down to the OBD port. If anyone's ever unsure about fitment, just drop a photo of your mirror housing and we can double-check it.   Appreciate the detailed feedback on the install! On the windshield glare—we actually took feedback like yours and developed a dedicated CPL (polarizer) filter to cut down dash reflections on sunny days. If you're still running the cam, shoot me a DM. I'd be happy to send a CPL filter over for you to test out—no charge.

      Yes, every time the developer updates his code, you must recompile. I will private message you with the latest because it changes pretty much with every version.

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      After I wrote that reply I went for a ride. 85 F out. So trans started at 85 F and it shifted the same as it did an hour latter at 168 F. I've never actually recorded the to cold to shift point but it is under 32 F before they start hanging on to a lower gear or leaving the converter unlocked. Both intended to heat fluid.    Yes, brake or bake. Absolutely.      Your welcome. True research ended decades ago. Field trials are still in play.    There is a thing called oxidation onset temperature. This is the heat related oxidation not the O2 exposure kind. For mineral oil that starts at 140 F. So what happens after 140 F? Each 20 F cuts fluid life in half! Does using a Full Synthetic improve that? Yes! By how much? Depends on the base oil type and a few other factors. But enough to notice. Some esters are even higher. There are even synergies between types the will raise it higher than any one component is alone.    Then there is "Hindered" oils. Antioxidant additives. Hindered Polyol Esters can sit at 500 F for years in a turbine.   When a blender brags his oil will 'take 500 F" in service he doesn't specify for how long. Water will dance on a 500 F hot plate for several seconds. @newdude put up a chart showing the relationship between fluid temperature and it's life in an automatic transmission. Here's a version of that chart for Group III based oils. These temperatures are those in the pan as observed as 'normal'. that is you drive as you do for as long as you do under what load you ask of it and whatever that temperature is this graph applies to. Flash temperatures of a few minutes isn't what his means.    Note that fluids held at a constant 240 F have a service life of only 20K miles. 220 F explains the factory exchange limit, eh? My equipment I keep under 180 F and I'm good if the cooler will hold it as low as 140 F. But that's me.
