Beautiful day for offroading: 6 jeeps, 1 4x4 lifted tundra, 1 badass TB!!!!
The TB handled great. With more power and the locking diff, guess who was towing out the the jeeps and even the tundra!!! The hi lift was used to jack up tires and as a winch. Mud was the biggest problem. 1/8 mile 20-30 inch deep water crossing. I love my TB, so did everyone else.
Some pics now, more pics and videos later.

Looks like a fun trip. Do you have street tires? Get some M/Ts on there and you'll really steal the show!

I put lots of highway miles on the TB so I have to stick to AT. They're 265/70/17. My tires measure ~ 31.5", can I say I have 32" tires?

Gotcha, I think you may be surprised about how long a good M/T can last on the highway. I have 50k on mine so far.
And... you can SAY whatever you want, but you'll always know the truth inside.

I stupidly did not record mileage when I put my MTs on... but it will be 2 years in April... with a 5 tire rotation every few thousand miles. I wouldn't be surprised if I get another 2+ years out of them...
