    Dave what drive tires you run? Do you try to get the most fuel efficient? You could always become a Cubs or Bears fan. They are good for reinforcement of meaninglessness of life.

    None of them are that fuel efficient when they're new. II has 4 Yokos and 4 Stones on it. 2 of the Bridgestones I need to replace cause they have rot. The Yokos are fine.

    They won't tell you your discount. Everyone thinks "DISCOUNT" and buys the most expensive tires. I've had good results with the Yoko's.

    You need to keep in mind, to get a decent life out of any of them, you're going to have to rotate them about every two services. That's probably $200 now.

    And once they get down to about 10 or 12/32's all the #### you ran over that didn't pop them, now will. Once you have a road service, or two, or need to do that and buy a replace with similar tread depth for $350, the marathon mileage game goes out the window, and you're dollars ahead just getting a new set.

    Firestones are on the other truck, and they've worn well.

    Spend big money on fuel efficient tire. Catch road debris and it's gone. Did you get to see the ROI on fuel? Depends when the tire died. Low tread depth they wear poorly. Get choppy, uneven, flake off, melt pattern together.

    There’s a lot going on here. The one girl in the left is like wtf. The one boy on the right looks like he’s checking out the teachers ### and another looks like he’s wishing to suck on something. Lol.

    Indigenous registration and permits for Blackie II will be leaving The Starve today, on the way to The Casa Del OM.

    The OM is pleased.
