My Michelin LTXs are 7 years old, have over 70,000 on them, and well more than a 100 passes down the track. Still have good tread, and stick well enough to do mid 10s with them.

That would be nice also. What i want is something that will last a while, have good traction, and not cost a fortune. Supposedly the Toyo open country m/t's last good, but they also cost over $300 a piece. I don't really want to spend $1200 to see if they last any better or to run a stob in one.

I have looked into them before. I've got a friend who's work truck is an f-450 or 550 with 19.5's. He wasn't very impressed with the first set that came on it. Do you know of anybody who has ran them on a 3/4 ton? How long will they last?
