Lonnie.......first of all thank you for all the help from a professional that you give us. I only have one question. I am in need of a set of tires on the F350 and I have pretty much decided on the Michellin you mentioned. Only thing that is holding me back is that I had heard that the tire makes for a stiff ride when not hauling. Do you have any comment on this? By the way, hauling 17,000 lb fiver. Thanks in advance.

Dave, I had heard the same thing. I was told that when the vehicle sets over night in cool weather, all the tires will have a "flat" spot on them until they got warm from moving on the road. That's not true at all. I've had Michelins on my truck for seven years and have never experienced the stiff ride (my truck has always ridden like a truck--what would one expect?) or the "flat" spots. If I were you, I'd go for it.
