    Mine did more than 60K this year...


    I took it for a 60K drive around the block yesterday to check that the stone guard is now satisfactorily mated to the RRV and to check how well the RRV tows it on poorer gravel roads at decent speeds, which it does very well.

    It too is a work truck and play toy but drags about 2T of trailer roughly 80% of the time. Still feels tight and have no hesitations in taking it anywhere at the drop of a hat (as I do).
    Great looking vehicle there, my favourite colour too. What are those wheels? What size tyres etc & do they rub anywhere?

    They are the GOE 18's with 265/65 BFG A/T's. They only rub on the odd occasion when on full lock. The previous 275/55/20's did all the rubbing and wore off the bits that get too close!

    What ride or other differences did you find between the 275/55R20 and 265/65R18?

    Lost a bit of high speed cornering enjoyment but small price to pay for the benefits on dirt, sand and off road.
