    Another bonus: price. I sold my Duractracs with 50% tread left for about what I paid for a brand new set of Falken Wildpeak A/T tires. They were quieter & rode SO much better too. to be fair, the Duractracs did well for the first 5,000 miles or so but they quickly went downhill after that from typical pavement driving. I really didn't own the truck for too long after I put the new tires on so I can't say how they lasted but reviews I read online said they lasted every bit as good as the Duractracs if not longer.

    Just my second day wearing it but so far I really like it. Plenty stiff and very comfortable. The release mechanism takes a little to get used to. I may pickup another one in black rather than replace my Wilderness.

    Pretty much my experience with Duratracs, excellent in snow (for an AT), and great off road, but after about 5,000 miles, I may as well have had a mud terrain on my truck, that's how loud they were.

    I agree that Duratracs are horrible tires. I?ve seen them on quite a few of our company vehicles and they wear funky and are really noisy and don?t seem to last as many miles as similar tires.

    Getting to see lots of trucks with lots of different tires is nice because I have a good idea what to buy or not buy when it comes time for tires on my own vehicles.

    I got a free set after some horse trading for my little Tundra and I don't have really any complaints. They are a little noisey but seem to be getting quieter (or I am getting used to them) as they wear. I rotate 5K with my oil change. If/when the oil patch picks back up, I will be looking at a set of these in 33x11.50R17

    Any roast type recommendations? Thanks.

    I enjoy all types of coffee. One thing I am picky on is the roast types and additives.
    I forgot which company but they put too much oil type of additive to roast on their coffee. Yuk.

    I'm not aware of anyone that adds oil to the beans. The oils come from the beans. If you buy flavored coffee, that's a whole other ball game....and yuck. This is coming from someone that doesn't mind some Irish cream in my coffee on the weekend.

    I'm also a fan of lighter roasts. Many dark roasts taste burned to me and the lighter roasts having a higher caffeine content is a bonus.

    ETA: If I did like oily coffee beans, I'd have to clean my burr grinder much more often. Another weird thing I've noticed with the darker and more oily beans is that they seem to create more static and stick to the grind cup. I actually don't think they have more static, it's just that the oils allow the grinds to leverage that static and stick to things.
