The dealership I work at is a Tire rack dealer, I have sold a lot of the General AT2 and have had nothing but good feedback on them. Been a very good tire for us. The BFG is good tire as well, but the General will do the same for less money.

I say otherwise. unless general grabber has changed tread pattern or rubber compound over the last 4 years they are JUNK after only bein half worn out. ESPECIALLY IN THE RAIN. PLUS the BFG's have been known to go 70-100k miles when maintained properly whereas the grabbers are more a 50k tire if you maintain them. yes the generals are a cheaper tire but you get what you pay for.
