I looked at and considered the new Toyo Open Country A/T3's. Compared them all side-by-side. I had the Toyo A/T2's in my 3rd gen. They were like the KO2's I had, good in dry dirt, not so great in the wet.
The new Toyo A/T3's supposedly have improved wet grip, but I suspected they would be louder than the Yokohama's.
Ultimately I went with Yoko's because I've always have a good experience with their car and truck tires, they were on flash sale of $100.00 off for a set of 4, a manufacturers rebate of $60.00 off a set of 4, they matched the lowest Walmart price, and I was getting $100.00 for each of my stock Dunlops.
I couldn't beat the deal, and I have been very pleased with them so far.

Discount Tire gave me $100 per tire off for my Dunlop stock tires! So, i saved $400 off KO2’s. How can you turn that down?!
A guy i know with Toyo AT3 did not like it. Had a sidewall puncture too. So, you picked good IMO.
