I've also run both BFG MTs and ATs.

I've only run BFG ATs on the F150, but on my old Jeep I went from 31x10.5 BFG ATs to 33x10.5 BFG MTs. For street driving, the ATs are better in the rain, in snow and have a longer life. The ATs are awful in the mud, although, they may perform better than they did on my Jeep since the truck's V8 will let you have more wheel spin to clean out the treads.

Never ran MTs on the road. As to your mention of the Grabber AT2 tires, I have had a set of those on my truck for a year and a half now and have been pleased with them. I drive off road about 10% of my miles on sandy dirt trails with some slick spots of clay/mud.

If you will be going into really muddy places consider getting a set of extra rims for MTs to be used on those occasions. I see a lot of guys doing that during hunting season.

Thanks everyone I will be sure to check into these tires. I've never driven the tires I have now in snow and probably never will, as far as wet traction goes they are pretty good, Ive had worse tires. These tires also only have about 10K on them. I just dont really need M/T, I'm mostly on the street, everynow and then I go offroad but its never anything hardcore enough to need m/t tires. I've been looking at the terra grappler a/t as well. I'll probably just get whichever one is on sale
