2012 on it's way!

[Wes1]

Placed my order on a 2012 Limited 4x4. I wanted it in Tuxedo Black, but since the earthquake in Japan Ford has put that color on hold and no one knows when it will be made again. Kinda bummed out, but still got the old black color.

Now my biggest problem is waiting the 8-12 weeks for it to come in!!

Will keep everyone posted.

Thanks!! Looking forward to getting out of the Nissan Pathfinder I have been in the last 4 months. Went from a F250 FX4 to my grandparents Nissan, that was a BIG change.

The big question now is, which tires? Nitto's, Pro Comp, BFG KTO, FC II, Mickey T's, what y'all think. Need something that will handle the Louisiana mud, but still get good wear on the asphalt.

Suggestions?!?

whats your spending limit?

$1500 or so on tires. But if I find a really good tire that I like and will do well in the mud, but also get wear I will spend more.

Nitto Trail Grapplers, they are a combination between Nittos awsome Mud Grappler (great for slogging trough deep mud but sound like an f16 on the road) and their awesome pavement princess terra grapplers (great for mostly road & light offroading) which makes a very good offroad tire but with good manners and sound level of a non M/t, thats what im getting

I am looking at the Nitto Trail, BFG TKO, FC II, and the Mickey T ATZ.
