Cool thanks that's all I really need to know. The rain and snow right now were more of the deciding factor

destinations are good for wet pavement ( till about the time you need to replace the tires but it started to fishtail a lot in the wet with about 50,000 miles or something on em.)

good for light mud(decent self cleaning tread), light rock crawling( pretty grippy on rocks) good for out here in vegas. they respond well in the dirt.


they do not however do well in deep gravel when each rock is smaller than a quarter. and sand. both times it just ****ing sank like a rock. that could have been cus it weighed like 6,000 lbs

Try Craigslist. Post in wanted section. Try searching around in the for sale section. Call local junkyards in va.
