Previously towed with my GX460 and it never performed well - I had to manually shift to keep it on a low enough gear, struggled on climbs, and the transmission heated up even with an auxiliary cooler. The LC pulled the camper REALLY well, even on long climbs at altitude. The transmission...
Oh man, I need the scoop on that too! I assumed I would need 1” spacers to fit that tire with stock rims. That has been my plan until I make a final decision on rims and lift and direction of the build.
Thanks - that’s good to know. I didn’t mean that it was ALWAYS 3%, I meant that my memory tells me it was roughly 3% in between the tire sizes specifically being discussed.
Are you adjusting your math for a larger tire when doing your MPG calculations?
I have not done the math, but from what I remember, you will do something like 3% RPM less with this tire (I looked it up once - I don’t usually have this sort of nerd knowledge in my head).
Might not totally make up...
I have heard sunroofs are the issue, VSC is the issue, and now port installed items…..which means nobody knows jack at this point. 🤣
Whatever the issue, I hope they resolve it soon!
What is even better than the ignore button is maybe just not adding the an opinion in the first place instead having the need to call someone else misguided without knowing a thing about them or their experiences - just a thought.
And while I greatly appreciate the chance to hear everything...
I feel like I have run every AT known to man at this point in my life. I wheel my rigs and I live where it snows a lot.
I think I am just going to go with what my personal experiences tell me works, instead of an anonymous person spouting off on a public forum. Thanks though.
My dealer has agreed to swap out the silly little street tires for a Wildpeak A/T in size 275/70/17 before I drive off the lot. They will give a $500 tire credit and then charge me for tire cost.
