Goodyear All Terrain from the factory.
Last winter the tread was getting pretty worn out. Good for summer, but not good for winter snow and ice. March of 2019 at the urging of the wifey because she was using the truck due large amounts of snow and ice, we put dedicated Winter Ice & Snow tires on.... WOW, There was No where that truck couldn't go...... then this early summer I put new "summer" tires on. A BigO brand All Terrain tire. We are driving with them now. Since we are on this 6 month camping trip, we will not see snow until we get near home in February - March.

Howdy all, is ‘Oregon Zoo’ a code phrase? Sounds fishy.

Morning all, had an appointment with surgeon yesterday. He said the eyes are looking good, but put me on more meds since they have high pressure in them right now. Vision is coming and going and it will be 3 to 4 months before they stabilize. So I have a good excuse for any miss spellings I may do.

It used to be called the Portland Metro Zoo, since they were taxing the whole state they changed the name to be more inclusive.
