Stuck

Right now my truck is stuck in the campus lot. We got 2 feet of snow yesterday and I pulled everyone out. Now I gotta find someone to pull me out (wake up Cody!!!). So I am just sitting here playing on the site till my next class. The worst part is it wasn't stuck when I parked it. I was using my truck as a plow to make parking spaces for ppl. At one point I was almost 30 ft into all the snow and backed out without a problem. The ranger really did great. I wish I had pics but I was driving the truck. AQlthough I know later I will most likely be pulling a 2003 Silerrado out so I will get pics of that if I have to pull it.

I don't mind the cold as long as there is snow, which we get plenty of. I just need to get new tires. My stock RT/s have seen better days. Anyone got a suggestions for a cheep mud tire. I was looking at the Dunlop mud terrains but I am not sure how well they will hold up.

Get some nice A/T tires...they perform in the snow WAYYY better than Mud Tires. I have BFG A/T's 31.5x10.5 got them local for $115 each.


Is that cheap enough...

my MTR's kick ***....they are plenty good in the snow, work pretty good in mud, aren't too loud on the road (like it matters anyways) overall very good....I was out today and the packed up in the thick clay-like mud I was in, but hey, their' not boggers....overall I'm very impressed with them...

If I bought the BFG ATs mine would be a lil more expensive since I got a 16 inch rim. I gotta get rid of these tear drops and get a set of Alcoas or something similar in a 15 inch.
