Tires

Has Ford discontinued putting Continentals on Superduties? I was at a dealer today and every Superduty truck on the lot had Michelin tires on it. I will be tickled pink if my F-350 arrives with a set of Michelin AT's on it.

I think the days of the Continentals are over. All of the new trucks I've seen in about the past four months or so, have had Michelins on them. I'd say you'll be pleased.

Right on. I was planning on buying a set and had been shopping around. If it comes with them it will save me well over $1K. I had a set of the LTX M&S on an F150 about 10 years back and they were the best tires I have ever had on a truck. Quiet, smooth, excellent year around traction. They also seemed to improve my mileage some if I remember. I have heard the LTX M&S and the AT2 are the same tire with only difference being the more aggressive tread pattern on the AT. May just be hearsay though. The M&S was the best winter tire I have had on ice. I would guess from all the sipes in the tread blocks. They really grabbed on to it.
