Help need new tires

Im in need of some new tires for my truck. Its a 2003 ford f150 fx4 ext cab. I'm gonna be mounting them on the factory fx4 wheels and I'm getting factory size 265/70r-17. I know 100% sure that I want and a/t tire. Most of my driving is on pavement and gravel roads so I want a tire that will wear like iron and really last me a long time however I work full time on a farm so I need a tire that can handle the occasional muddy farm road and slick field. I've narrowed it down to three, but i don't know which would be overall best. I'm also on a tight budget so price is a big factor.

I just bought Cooper Discover at3 tires for my F250. The more I drive them the better I like them. They are quiet with great handling. I had Michelin before but I like the coopers better.

Like lariat says the cooper at/3 is an awesome tire. I also like the nitto terra grappler and the toyo open country at. Also checkout a tire brand, Hercules they have a tire called the terra trac at which does really good for alot less money.

I have the terra trac on my truck right now. I hate hate hate them. I've hear about a tire called the Kelly safari tsr? Anyone know anything about them? I've heard they wear like iron but they look more like a mud tire to me and like they wouldn't last that long.
