** UPDATED: NO LONGER AVAILABLE. Shipping to SCO1. Thanks... ** "Trail" badges from Shapeways (you know, the same badges with the bigger "R" everyone is installing on their Trail editions). I got the matte black "flexible" ones. I since sold my T4R before installing the badges. FREE to...

philsey and Jhalko thanks for the comments, even the snarky ones from halko :) I realize I have stepped into the dark world of JGC reliability concerns. But I also assume I will be stepping away from this for something else at the end of the warranty period or not long after. I moved and lost a...

^^Done. Today, sadly, I let go of my brand-spanking new Trail for a new Grand Cherokee Overland. Why? One word: HEMI. Wait, three more words: EIGHT SPEED TRANSMISSION As much as I LOVED the 4runner, for my purposes (i.e. mostly highway), I couldn't take the throttle response and the NVH...

Nice truck, congrats. I lived in St. C many years ago...:sleepy: j/k

Very nice. Congrats.

Yes, that is exactly my point. You said it better than me. Whenever one can get a sample size of n>30, statistical relevance increases significantly. You also make a good point about CR as a resource, though the number of different types and brands of tires they test is fairly limited each year.

Maybe it's just me, but when I need to research tires, I look at the user ratings on Tirerack (no affiliation) with millions of miles of experience to discern the various attributes of tires, rather than seeking random opinions from a limited forum sample.

SOLD, I updated a later post but perhaps you missed it. thanks.

^^ Word. A search on ih8mud will surface much of the pain and anguish of these combo systems on the 100 series.

^^ does not compute...

I am just guessing that most people didn't pay for extended warranties, so very hard to compare without knowing how much those added to your cost.

Talk about upgrades....well done. :banana:

Only from the inside is it noticeable - and even then only slightly. From the outside, if the tint installer uses the correct shade and material (my installer chose a metallic film) it matches very well with no greenish hue from the outside.

After trying many tire products over the years, I like it. Mostly due to the natural finish / low gloss. And brings back the black, of course...
