Getting the itch to buy something new for the truck. Spending the next 3 weeks in my recliner with the laptop could be detrimental to the wallet, but the truck will be happy.

Edit** McCurdy auctions had a sale ad for a few homes going up for auction. Might be something else to look into..
Even though we weren't looking up north, our realtor actually told us about the houses in the "quick sand" Apparently a lot of ppl were less than happy.

That's how I end up buying junk I don't need! Too much downtime at work means I browse the interwebs. Oh look, a "mod" I don't need but want! Or worse yet, oh look, a weekend car!

Oh yea. No raptor on sight so I don't think he realized he had the 2014 SE bead locks wheels. Tires are at about 40% but I'm not using them anyway. Other than being dirty the wheels themselves are in excellent condition.

Glad to hear, I'd love you pick a set of those up. But not for 2k lol.

I definitely wouldn't pay that either.

I'm debating on tires now. Since I'm selling my current set up to a buddy I need new ones. I've ran multiple sets of the trail grapplers and love them but thinking of going with a less aggressive tire. Ridge grappler, Falken AT3....haven't decided yet.

I've been looking at the Cooper ST Maxx, not quite an MT, not quite an AT. I ran some trail graps and after about 15k they became more noisy than I like. I have KO2s now but I'm pretty sure the cooper will be next for me. Plus their a good looking tire.

Those Beadlocks are an awesome find!

I will say that I have been very impressed with my Ridge Grapplers. Very quiet and pretty competent off-road. Depending on the size you are looking for, you can also get them in a "C" load.

I really like the ridge grapplers but was having a hard time coughing up the extra $110/tire over the Falkens. So after owning 8 different sets of Trail Grapplers I went with the Falken AT3W in a 315/70.

We'll see how they work out
