on a scale of one to ten....how good is this truck in the snow?

[texaz2006]

Id give it a 8 or 9. I wish it had a all wheel drive option for the times when only certain areas are slick so you dont have to run true 4 wheel drive. I still spin in 2 wheel drive. Mine sucked horribly before I got these tires. Factory tires are pretty wide, act like boats. Truck is geared pretty low so it will just about climb up a telephone pole. Ill have it in the snow this weekend up in the mountains.

what kind of mpg are you getting?

[texaz2006]

I average about 13 mpg, city/hwy. Dakotas with v8's are notorious for shitty mileage. Sorry it took so long to reply.

MPGs are not a reason to buy a truck... Its to be able to do this stuff!! How do you like the Coopers?

[texaz2006]

Love the Coopers. They are wearing great. Excellent traction. Got about 8,000 miles on em now

@texaz2006 no you dont.. they actually made these trucks with a factory awd option and they still had the 4hi an 4lo but you could never be in just 2wd..i has one same year as yours but 4 door and i hated it i wish i would of gotten the 2wd, 4hi, 4 lo version cuz the awd ones suck

No but I am planning on getting one very shortly. I am going to put a cat back exhaust on it including a 2.5 inch single to a 2.5 inch duel flowmaster 40 series.
