    Stuck in snow much?

    my state law is 2/32 tread.. im above that. I road motorcycles in rain and snow and the tires come in 7/32 new. Im sure I rode in4/32 in the hard rain in CA. Maybe you should take your truck in the snow and test for yourself. Go over 12" of fresh snow and report back. I mentioned before...

    Stuck in snow much?

    That is good info.. I checked tirerack and Kumho site. Unfortunately it does not have the tread depth rating for your size. Can you tell me if it is 15 or 13 32nd? Im leaning towards this tire, due to price. Also got to replace tires on my wife's vehicle. :/ That saved my ass getting to...

    Stuck in snow much?

    Im thinking of getting a narrower set like yours.. What are the advantages?? I dont want a really heavy tire. Given I like low noise and not too aggressive. Quiet. It was the reason I got the revo's. It has about 65K miles and served me very well. But I recently moves to WA and driving...

    Stuck in snow much?

    Well this is my first year in snow. I got stuck twice. The pathetic part is that its not even deep snow. The first time is about 12" all around. This morning 2" of snow on 3 tires and 12" on 1 tire. Trying to leave for work. I know I need new tires. They currently have bridgestone revo's...

You may have to take it out of the clip back and fourth to make sure the correct tension for the cable, so...

    Highest Mileage 4th Gen?

    Its what I was thinking.. Miles is one thing.. But if you got it used. None of these thing maybe maintained. Its why maintenance states miles/year which ever comes first.

    Why is V8 Full Time AWD?

    huh... I didnt even know 4runners came in a v6.. Id be crazy not yo have that extra torque. :p Kidding... OP original question. Im not sure why v8 comes with all time 4wd. Im not complaining. I wanted a v6 but got a v8 due to price. When I bought it people were selling their v8's.. Suckers..
