That thing is awesome. Mind if I ask, how much does one of those tires cost?

yes that v6-engine has the mileage of a v8 ,even in stock trucks.

Well of course we could use it lol but my old stealth plowed through the snow like nothing. Even last year with record snow falls. So this truck seems a bit overkill...for MN that is. Id still like it though lol

Its not about plowing through the snow. Its all about floting on top of it

The snow there is about 5 feet deep
