    Currently I've got a Tacoma and am a member of the Tacoma World but as I approach 100k miles on my 2010 I'm planning on the upgrade to a Tundra so I'll be lurking around and reading posts and asking questions when I have them.

    Drove the truck home on MLK day and have just around 4500 miles on it now, I've been averaging just over 16 MPG with around 75% on the interstate and I can't wait to take it on a longer ride to burn a couple tanks and check my MPG. Those tires came on the truck and I think the dealer had a deal with someone to include different tires and it fell through, I can't stand the tires and am almost thinking of just getting a set of Michelins and fleaby or craigs list the ones on the truck.

    Why can't you stand the tires?

    Nice looking truck? Is it a "Rock Warrior"? I like the wheels it has on it...

    It's an Off Road and for $100 you get those wheels and the decal on the bed.
    The tires are Attura Blade M/T http://atturo.com/moto/trail_blade_mt and I don't like the highway noise.
    My off road will mainly be gravel roads and work out in the fields from time to time unless we move back to the northwest U.S. I'm looking at the Michelin LTX LT275/65R18 AT2, I had the LT AT1 version on a Ranger I used to have and the AT2 P version on my old Taco. For me the Michelins do the job well and wear like iron
