How you liking the km3’s?


They are my summer tire! They ride exceptionally smooth on the road! I haven’t truly off roaded the truck, so I can’t really say much there! Also, I’ve only put about 2400 miles on them!

Time will tell!

Nice to have a set for the winter and summer seasons. I do the same switch over on two of our cars, but not for my trucks due to the higher cost.

Naples isn't that far from me. Nice looking PW. How do you like your cap?

I love the cap! Screened windoors make for decenct camping!

! 500lb rack gives peace of mind when anything goes on the roof!(though the sub-frame takes up a little room inside!)

Gate is keyed to truck!

E rated Duratracs for the winter here! 5+ months of winter roads! The softer tires wear too fast on the hot summer pavement!

I gotta have 2 sets!

I run the E rated Duratracs on my 1/2 ton 4x4, but with 2 separate pebble sized flats on my Power Wagon factory Duratrac Load Range D tires during the warmer weather asphalt road driving, I won't run them again on my 3/4 ton PW. They are too soft like you stated and wear fast like the KO2 tires did on my son's Ram 2500. Wasn't happy with my daughter running into a tree with our Jeep (destroyed) due to spinning out on brand new set of KO2's. I admit that I had similar issues with them on it as I did with several KO sets on all my trucks prior once the tires aged a couple of years.

Went with the Load Range E 34" Cooper ST Maxx. If they made a Load Range E 35", then I would have chosen that due to the 3 ply carcass. Haven't read about any other 3 ply carcass 35" tires getting such good snow reviews. Haven't had any slippage on snow and ice with the ST Maxx and none was expected.

Gas mileage up to 12.5 MPG on the computer figures due to the warmer just around freezing weather and with less use of the 4 wheel drive. Happy with around 13 MPG with the 4% larger tire size adjustment. Love the Power Wagon lockers for getting up into my rural acreage ice and snow covered driveway steep incline. The ST Maxx works fine as a cross between a M/T and A/T tire.

Get snow here anytime from mid September to mid May and so another set of summer tires I would run just 4 to 5 months.

Just put a tankfull in the ol girl. Computer readout showed 9.8 mpg, as did the hand calculation. Just normal wintertime cruising, aside from roughly 50 miles of hauling my garden tractor with snow blower.

I have 5,500 miles on my '18 model, still with the 33" factory tires, and I have been getting 10-11 city and 14-15 hwy. Not impressive, even when factoring in the variable valve shutoff (aka eco mode). We'll see if that changes when MI switches from winter gas to summer.

I'm in Indiana and I did see a 2-3 mpg drop in the winter. 8-9 in my medium size stop and go town. I'll usually get about 11 in the summer.

Had 38 on the clock when I left the dealership on the maiden voyage home. Reset mpg and rolled over 200 pulling in the drive.....11.8mpg with cruise set at 70 with 2 stops along the way. Meh....this is why there’s a Jetta in the garage too
