Search continues. All I can find is E-load 36-37x12.5 x 18 and would prefer a lighter load range possible. My rims are 18 inches so not going to 17 (where I know more options are). Truck is a 6000 pound SUV empty, 7000 pounds fully loaded, no trailer, no rock crawling.

I am looking for some lighter 36 inch A/T Tires (11.5-12.5 width) for an 18 inch rim and hoping someone here has a link they can point to. Currently running Nitto A/Ts 34's at 50lbs a skin, and am familiar with the pains of going taller just want to avoid a massive rolling resistance hit...

Thank you for the responses. There was too much to absorb on short notice, and some of the solutions were not cheap so did not want to rush. Went with an old school 'dumb' cooler and dealt with it as it was roadtrip/hotel situation and allowed me to re-ice, etc. It was just one more added...

Thank you for the advice, but can't risk a dead battery, nor the time to dedicate to wiring and wondering if done correctly. What about 12 hours?

The dial has different terrain sellects, and 1 or 2 will 'lock' in 4 hi. Check YT, Gaggle, or manual. Might be sand mode, again IIRC. Sold truck 6 months ago. My biggest beef was the 4Hi and Rear all locked by clutch and were capable of slipping and being overheated--not what you want in a 3...

Hello-- I prefer to bring my own food on the road. So, looking for a fridge/freezer combo that can keep items cold via car cig lighter plugged in while engine running, and cold enough overnight while left in vehicle (disconnected from vehicle power) so I don't have to drag it into the...

Finally clicked--wished I hadn't... Nobody told me adorning my truck with cool 4x4 overlanding gear and 12 pink MaxTraxx would require me to take 'deuces in the woods! :oops: 'Welp, back to the CorvetteForum...

Phsycle: That is what the "I get it part" was about. I just mentioned what a 'real' package to me would be like--that I'd like to see (which obviously Big Ford could give a $##t about). And while I do think there are some people (not 10... but maybe 15-17.5 people?) who would buy an F150 that...

Slapping a "TREMOR" package to me is the equivalent of adding racing stripes to a vehicle thus making it faster by default. I know why they are doing it to ever P/U they make but still and can appreciate AWD as added capability and of course 25 extra horse is nice (probably only if run premium...

Thank you for the correction, JB. I guess I have been referring to it incorrectly as "D" due to the class of weight it can bear (2756 @44psi per tire) and the incorrect assumption it was a truck tire. As it matches the factory specs for the tires as issued, now I realize that D Load is not the...

I have the 10spd behind the 3.5 EcoBoost ('20 Expy--which is a lot lighter--also has sport, eco, tow, etc. it does not have a 'start in 2nd gear mode for sluper slow rolling which ECO mode should do). It is not brilliant, and IMHO needs a small software fix to really get sorted because it is...

I have had E's on trucks and they always road rough and weighed a ton--but I rarely ran around loaded. My truck is a '20 Ford Expedition FX4, and while it can carry 1750+ pounds it does not call for E rated IMHO. It is currently not set up for full-overlanding so I rarely come close to...

Please don't turn this into a VAX debate. Please don't turn this into a VAX debate. Please don't turn this into a VAX debate. There, I said it 3x!

My current vehicle of choice is a 2020 FX4 with HD Tow. It is very FAST even with 87 octane and can be negotiated for the low $50's if you stay off the option list and only get what you need (FX4 & HD Tow). There are a couple of choices to lift it 3-1.5 inches and you can squeeze 34s in...
