Quality shot Wallace. The light is great on the mountains.

Hah! Well, we do now!

I don't know about the MTs, but the Mastercraft ATs I've heard of lasting 30k miles, start to finish, but with good traction, so I imagine they're a softer rubber.

I don't know the exacts, but I had basically 100k miles on two sets of BFG KM1s. The first set was in better shape at about 50% when I got rid of them, the second set was at like 30% remaining.
Its possible that they are softer. I had heard that they gave good life, but who knows.
I figured a lot of the traction had to do with the wider voids, the siping, and the wider tire. Plus, I imagine the locker and the gearing made the biggest impact. I used to have to get some wheel spin to lock the locker up, the powertrax doesn't require any, so it is much more controlled.
