I think I must be a bad person because after checking out the link posted by @opnwide, I tracked down the owners and now know their names, where they live, and where the husband works! :oops:

…and this is why many people who take delivery are probably not posting anything…?

Would be fantastic in deep snow or mud, terrible everywhere else.

per the owner’s Instagram posts, they got the truck with sport wheels/tires, delivered on a day with a foot of snow. Went to Les Schwab and had the tires we see here put on for winter.
Haha having endured a large number of unfortunate driving incidents in the snow during my time living in Bend (spun off road x2, needing snowcat to tow me out of Bachelor lot, etc) I can see why they opted for a bit of extra “security” with their new rig. Range is the lesser concern until it warms up.

They don’t salt in OR BTW for those that don’t know. They leave a thick layer of rock, sand, and packed snow/ice for you to drive on until it melts. Sometimes that can mean weeks or up high months…
