Lol! Thanks for the ego boost! :) I did just have someone Facebook message me if I was the "chick with the raptor" so I guess some people may talk...

I'm not exactly sure why but I swear my truck feels like its working more to turn the new rubber. I guess the last set was so hardened they may not have been gripping much anymore since it did break loose on the slightest patch of water but something just feels weird...

Perhaps check the tire pressure and make sure they did not send you down the road with low or lower PSI then you were used to rolling . I have new tires on order ; MT/R's with Kevlar and I am eager to see how these will affect ride , handeling and sound.

The stockers are awsome on the road and sticker then hell ( at least the set I have ) but do they ware fast.

Congrats on the new skins.

Looking forward to your report on the MT/R's, Deadeye. I had a set on my feed truck back when they first came out and they were too soft for that application. I ended up blowing out the sidewalls on 3 of 4 of those things and they chunked quickly on these gravel roads.

Dealer told me he had to call a bfg rep and if the rep couldn't respond he would have to remove my tires and send them back east and I would have to buy new ones until bfg figured out what they do. I laughed. Dealer then told me to take it to a tire shop and see if they could warranty them what a joke.

I have 35" MT/R/Ks on my H3. Great tire for offroad. Heavy as hell, but noise is not too bad. I think the semi directional / offset makes a difference. I will say, if you go wheeling in deeper snow, you might find yourself wishing for the KM2s. I think that will be my next offroad tire.

Time to find a new dealer! What B.S.! Pull out your warranty book - it states the coverage for tires right in there...

Thanks for the help.

So I just called corporate got a case number. Ford said it should be covered under the factory warranty its still considered a new car since its under 12k. Ford said find another dealer who work with me I thought that to be kind of funny.

Sweet! Hope it all works out!
