Yes, OEM tires, next set will be Falken wildpeaks

One year and 14k miles still going strong!

First off, its SUV or Pick-up, Small or full-size. Like many older farts here, I’ve had the full spectrum. Now, I’m down to two pickup trucks, a small one and a big one. As a current 2016 Tacoma owner, and many months into my 2021 power wagon, I can say its all about what you want…. Yes do...

Yes taken at the infamous red rock turnout, normally filled with tourists taking in the vista.

I suppose. Went out to Moab then through Yellowstone up into eastern Washington over a course of a month. Traveling back roads/highways (until Nevada) kept me off the West’s 75-80mph interstates. Guess I drove the RambaCadillac like an old man?

Snugtop on the back now. Been posting a bit to YouTube on the new ride.

Yeah at least new, seem to very quiet on the interstate. I’ve taken the truck out several times behind my house in the snow and mud., does really well. Compared to my 16 Tacoma TRD, the creature comforts of the truck are very spoiling.

yes. And the 33’s do look small. The truck seems to be a bit slippery on ice, not sure if it’s me, the tires or what.

Do I just put the snugtop on the back, or do I turn it into an overland rig?

Picked her up today.
