Yeah yeah whatever. Please explain to us how your 12ft flat bottom with 20lb tongue weight stresses your 3/4 ton.  Truth is, you 90k tire guys rank up their with the guys claiming 15mpg towing 20k lbs at 80mph. Ain't happening under normal conditions.

While you're at it, would you mind posting your pics of Nessie and Bigfoot making out? Along with the tread left on your tires? Both are hard to see.

I put around 35,000 miles a year on mostly commuting around DFW. Pull a Ranger 519 Comanche boat every weekend. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2023/10/full-50986-201447-img_5394.jpeg)

I’m running the pathfinder AT from Discount Tire and I’ve been pretty impressed by them.

I never could get mileage out of BFGs, had 2 sets. I also noticed a MPG drop with the AT KOs. Nittos and Toyo got better wear and MPG. I can get 60+k from the toyos.
But the BFG AT KOs is better in the mud. IMO

Once the All Terrains were out going with Michellins. They have been the best tires for me. 100k on the last set. Traded the truck with them. Still had 10,000 miles left.

Some of the Good Years on the Chevy's Crew Cabs only get about 25,000 . I guess they are soft compound for a better ride

Interesting you are getting a different experience. My 2 cents Toyo Open Country AT2's. Got 65K on mine, rotate every oil change and got 1 more year left.

I get 65 to 70k out of the BFGs. When comparing MPGs between tires you need to look at weight. Heavier tires will lower your MPGs. BFGs are OK at best in the mud. Probably the best ATs for mud are Duratracs.
