Trxus, treadware anyone?

Was wondering what kinda milleage I may expect from a set of Trxus MT's 285/75r16 on my stock 99 f150 (short cab/bed) v6 4x4. I have been looking at tires, and want a tire that can handle some mud, but also do well in snow and on the road as a daily driver. Most of the mud tires dont have much siping, but the trxus does, and I have heard lots of folks like it for an all around tire. Plus they have em here localy 150-something a tire. Thats the most I want to spend on a tire. Lots of a/t tires cheaper but none with big enough voides to look like they would get me up the muddy hill come hunting season. Did kinda like the Nitto Terra Grapplers but again, I am not sure if they can handle some mud? Or how about Kumho Venture MT's? They look like a MT but with smaller lugs and a tighter pattern - more bitting edges on slippery roads. Any thoughts? I would really like 30K on a set of tires or else I am gonna settle on AT's.
