Ole man dan, I did have a slow leak in left front about midway through December, was only about 10,000 on these 70k tires. I had purchased the road hazard warranty on each tire when I bought them. I took truck in to where I bought them and the warranty. Tire had sidewall puncture, which I figured something I did running it through a lot of corn and bean stubble every day for almost a month and a half running traps. Warranty applied as intended, a little pro-rata adjustment for the 10k I had already put on it, and I was out of there with a brand new tire and very little cash paid out of pocket for the tire swap out for new. For about $20 a tire, the road hazard made sense to get for me on the $1,300 I put into that full set and with what driving I planned on doing with them.
Since majority of my time is commuting, I leaned more toward highway tire, less to mud/snow, and saved a lot of road noise. I only drove fields when it's bone dry, otherwise I get out and hoof it to run my line. I like walking it anyway but sometimes the boys and I are pushed for time so we drive the line where we can. These tires still work great for what snow and ice we've had so far, and the cost was a little less than the stock wranglers that came on them when I bought it. I do watch to see what other folks run on their trucks on this forum and appreciate any suggestions and feedback. Thanks for sharing your experience on the continentals. Will keep that in mind on my next purchase.
Working on some of those under $50 mods been reading about on here. Love that thread.

2013 FX4 with 25k miles. Nothing interesting to report other than a few minor snags here and there that are true for any car.
Most importantly, this truck rides like a dream and I don't understand how I was able to put up with smaller cars in the past and why doesn't everyone drive a pickup truck. The world would be a better place.
