05 V6 2wd Ltd 180k mi Purchased 2/'05 new No overheating or leaks Week or two ago started the water flow noise/shimmy on start up with the 3 dash warning lights illuminating. Went away a few days later, came back this past weekend. It's in the shop as we speak getting the diagnosis formally...

Grey/Tan, One owner, clean car fax/no accident, 2005 LTD V6 rwd in the Charleston SC area (Mt Pleasant). 167k mi, well taken care of, non smoker, great shape, regularly and properly serviced. Standard minor wear and tear normal for a 13 year old car. Nice level stance with a 5/8" material spacer...

Same Same here, except the right two vents blow cold and the driver side 2 dash vents blow room. Recharged the system two times for $150 each time and it lasts 6 months max. Could my issue also be this relay?

Same ? Came here to ask the same question. '05 with 170k mi is starting to show her age a bit. Expecting the 2018 to be a remodel since we are already 1 year longer than normal gen length (7 yrs).

Cornfed on mine. See link below for details.

6 years and 100k mi. She runs as good as new too.

Update Wanted to give a much deserved at-a-boy to these tires. Went to the WNC mountains a few weekends ago, stayed in a mountain lake house with a really steep driveway (25% grade give or take) that led to another really steep road up to the highway(20%). Snowed 4 inches or so overnight and...

The mpg drop was about what I expected. For what it's worth my computer dash read out says that after a fill up I have about 345 miles to go where it used to say about 405 before the 70 tires. I love love love the look, though. It's much closer to level, as desired, the nose is now "off the...

Tirerack was helpful in my decision - definitely.

Sold. Yes they were 265/65s sorry about that.

Plenty of life left on these Michelin Cross Terrains (~5.5/32s). Rotated religiously at 5k miles. 3.5 yrs old. Never punctured, blown, plugged, anything. Ran perfect, they just got replaced by a larger ratio. I'd say 15k mi. left on these minimum. Make offer. In S. Carolina; will ship if...

Went from 265/65 Mich Cross Terrains to 265/70 Firestone Destination ATs. I also have a 1 1/4" front end cornfed leveling spacer lift. First off - Cross Terrains were good. 45k trouble free, stress free, flat tire free and even-wearing miles. Handled well, very hydroplane resistant, and...

This tire was consumer reports worst rated AT tire of all they tested in their last go 'round. Take it for what it's worth. Looks like a good tire and a good value to me though. Let us know what you think.

Excellent post. Very helpful - thanks.

I know right. So many open ended threads in here. What did you choose and hows the time been with them so far? I just put on 265/70 Dest. ATs last week. Not enough mileage on them yet to give a full review but they are fantastic so far. Amazing value to boot.
