Mine must have been 285s, too many numbers. I drive over red mountain pass every other weekend so I know they do very well in snow and ice. They were fine in sand and rocks at the lake. Will find a mudhole someday....

My Ex probably won't see a mudhole even though I would like to. I got my duratracs because I needed a new set and I liked how they looked.

Took it out to a ranch and helped run a hunt for charity, then shot some of our own birds

Man, I haven't heard any artillery in a long time. I had some great times out at Camp Pendleton, training for my primary MOS and then a few visits over the years. Miss the whole military thing sometimes.

Round tripped the mountains yesterday 376 miles, took the Scouts to the slopes, the Ex lie-o-meter says 20.5 MPG, ran perfectly. The tow/haul is great for keeping the speed down on a 8% decent.

I got some stuff done to my Lincoln. Dropped the front of the car so it's only a inch higher than the rear now. Than I did a egr delete, carb swap, new plugs, wires and timed it.

Not the best pic, but can see the new stuff anyways.
