How do you like the STT?

I love them. They did great in the deep snow and I even used 2wd a few times just to see how they'd do in 2wd and they did really good. It would take a bit to get going but once going it would go good until I hit a decent size hill then I would need 4wd again. Plus mine are about halfway gone too so the tread isn't near as deep as when they were new. They are slick in light snow though, but that's any M/T tire.

Looks like fun !! You can't beat a balanced jeep with FT 4x in the snow ...

Apparently not because her jeep is so stable and gets so much traction in the snow that it's almost boring. Even turning off the ESP you have to work to get it to spin!LOL We had some NASTY freezing rain here a few weeks ago and my titan even in 4wd was scary going to work but my wife said the jeep twitched a couple times and the ESP light came on and it corrected itself right away and went on. One other thing that contributes A LOT is her tires. It has Mastercraft (madeby cooper) courser HTR's on it and they have fairly open lugs(for a more street oriented tire) so they don't get packed up but at the same time they are COVERED in sipes so they grip REALLY good even on ice. But even with identical tires her jeep would kick the titans a$$ in snow because that full time 4wd that can adjust itself as needed rocks. I can't wait till we get her 2" lift and a set of JK rubicon wheels and 32" M/T's so I can take it to rausch creek!

HA HA Thanks man, you're truck was my inspiration! :hi: You're truck is still WAAAY nicer than mine though. As much as I REALLY hate to say it mine may be going bye bye here in a couple months. We just aren't making the money we were and it's payment and horrible gas mileage (It's gotten waaaay worse too with this $hit winter blend! I struggle to get 15mpg with cruise set at 65mph on the highway!) are killing us. I'm finally at the point where I owe about as much as it's worth so I wouldn't be upside down on a trade and I'm thinking of downsizing to an 05+ taco with a 4cyl and manual tranny. I've been looking a lot into them and a lot of guys with the extended cab, 4wds are getting low-mid 20's out of them on the highway. Not too mention I can find them for mid-high teens so my payment wouldn't be too bad. It REALLY saddens me though because I love this truck so much and it's finally getting semi-badass and I've invested so much time and money in it but I can't stand seeing my wife and I struggle so bad anymore.:crying:
