Where in TX? Red dirt part or flint & limestone area? If in the flint rock areas, consider something with triple sidewall construction (BFG TA-KO, etc).

Best all terrain tire I've ever had, that's why I bought another set. They where great on the streets, good off road, abd went through every snow storm we've had for the last 5 years. I recommend them all the time

When I was looking for tires a little while back, I was down to the same exact choices you listed. I ended up buying the nitto terra grappler AT 285/65 r18.
It's been a great tire with no issues for me. It looks aggressive and does great on road and off. Up here in Ohio it's also done great in the snow. I'd definitely buy again.

Cool, yea I'm leaning towards the nitto' cause of their price. Nitto are 210, and duratrac are 250.

Know they are not on your list but toyo mts are a brute of a tire with excellent road manners and fairly quite........I will never buy a Hankook tire again had a set of 33" dynapro mts on my Super Duty and ALL four suffered internal separation with at least half their tread left... the 35" Toyo mt's I replaced them with refuse to wear down....when I'm ready to put tires on the F150 they'll be toyo mts

There was something about the duratracs I didn't like but can't remember what. I think it had to do with the sidewall and I read reviews where people said they would get a lot of roll side to side with that tire. I tow a 7K camper with my 05 so I needed an E rated tire that would hold up. People said you can feel the side to side while towing with the duratracs like a snake.
There might be a pic or two in my profile
