Driving & Towing an almost 11,000lb travel trailer from Michigan to NC with my new BFG KO2 tires

[@VayaconChupacabra]

I run ko2s on all of my trucks and love them!! Here in Oregon, when it snows it always turns into ice sheets within 24 hours, followed by days of freezing rain. ko2s are actually rated as traction devices, and perform as such. They really stick to the icy roads. I feel that they track very well in all weather and driving conditions.

I was BFG for many years unitl I got Flaken WILDPEAK A/T3W. Love these tires

May have to check those out at the next switch

Very good and informative vlog. We live here in Michigan so we are used to the roads haha. Stay safe and always watching here in Michigan. Love the channel Big Fella.

Thank you sir!

I just put KO2's on my Ram 1500 and it's night and day difference from the Geolanders I had. Smooth and quiet. Almost unbelievable how quiet they are with the size of the lugs in the tread.

[@liveyourfree]

100% agree!

Update on my new KO2's. Towed a mazda5 on a car carrier 200 miles on flat and mountain roads. 18.5mpg 60-65mph. That's only 4mpg less than my average commute mpg (all reeway) 44 miles round trip. Quite as a chruch mouse. It's definitely a step up from the Geolanders. 265/75 R17 I'm a KO2 convert for sure. They are going on my TJ next.

Tires look good! I’ve had KO2’s on my truck for 26k miles now and very happy with them. I’ve towed up and down the East Coast with no issues. They’re pretty good off-road also. Interesting to hear your thoughts vs the Nitto tires.

Check out the Northwoods Wisconsin for next year. You'll love it! Tires look good man, I've been looking at the KO2s

[@liveyourfree]

I was just talking to my wife about where we should look at for next year. That's a great recommendation. I appreciate it!

Loved our 312BHTS when we still had it. Thinking about getting another one. My one headache with a gasser was the short range, having to stop every 200+/- miles for fuel. How do you deal with that?

[@liveyourfree]

@lrs_reloader3634 I totally get it. We just took a 6,067 miles trip around the country with it. It is definitely more stopping than if we weren't towing. Honestly, it was a good thing because it forced me to get out and stretch/check the tires etc...it breaks down to stopping about every 2.5 hours. 3 depending on the terrain (flat land or hils) and wind drag

Have you ever considered adding a cold air intake or a magna flow exhaust? I’m on the fence about this with my 2500. Some people say it increases HP and MPG and some say it doesn’t. I was hoping to add at least 1.5 MPG towing my Imagine. Last trip going over some mountains of VA I averaged 9.5.

[@liveyourfree]

I'm in the same boat as you. I may try to do that before the next trip we take out west.

Go with Borla! Not obnoxious and no drone even when towing. It’s pretty quiet when cruising but awesome sound when you get into it.
