I finally got a set of the Terra hunters on my truck last week. They’re a little noisier than the Duratracs, but nothing the radio won’t drown out. They ride a lot smoother on city streets. On the highway doing over 70 there was some vibration for a couple miles but it smoothed out. Haven’t...

I think Ram has the best MFT design out there. Ford is ok, but it’s just a wish.com version of what Ram has. The Chevy/GMC is just plain dumb.

Glad to hear the 270/70-18 will fit underneath. I was a little ticked when I crawled under to see the spare was smaller so I’ll be replacing it with a full size.

The ones I’ve seen have run well, but they make a helluva club.

I’m past my hot rod days and I rotate every oil change. I may give them a try and see how they do. The Duratracs that came with my truck are the worst feeling tires I’ve ever had. I’m overly cautious in wet weather because they slide around like I’m on ice. Almost hit the wall coming off a...

Hmmm… seems like it’s all over the place for durability.

How have the Venom power tires been doing in the rain?

I am (was) a Ford guy. I’ve been driving the F150 for almost 2 decades and didn’t even think about the other brands. Right at the beginning of Covid early 2020, I decided it was time for a new model. I was in an 07 at the time. Unfortunately Ford doesn’t like to sell trucks with V8’s anymore...
