That is a great tire. What do you think is a "respectable" tire?

Our GM Greg Foutz has 2 of them, the white race truck & this one to chase with. And yes, it helps for development as well. We already have a line of bumpers developed & built for the 2017.

Did Greg start add? Hows the power with the new engine? I'm going to take a good look at one when it comes out.

Jared Hare is the owner & started the company out of a 2 car garage about 10 miles from our current 80,000 sq ft facility. Greg has been with us as our GM about 5 years now.

I like it a lot. There are three things I would have liked to see improved on the gen2:


1) heavy duty IWEs
2) stronger tie rods
3) a better designed steering knuckle or better material or both

As the loyal owner of a 2012 F150 Platinum, I'd place my order today IF I could find a dealer to sell it for MSRP!... Galpin?... Anyone?...
