Remember those big, honkin’ mud tires that were on our F-250 when we bought it? We got rid of them quickly, recouping some money towards our budget and instead swapping on the stock wheels and tires that came with the truck.

And those tires–an old set of Cooper all-terrains–were fine for a while, but eventually we’d had enough: They were badly …

I think you chose well.  I narrowed it down to the Toyo Open Country A/T and the Continental TerrainContact.  I went with the Continental mostly because I wanted something that did well on the highway and wouldn't be helpless off road or in snow.  The Continental is definitely on the "soccer mom" side of things.  Still adequate for the A/T part, but one step closer to H/T.  The Continentals are SOOO quiet.  Heck, I've had H/Ts that were louder than these Contis

I'm sure you'll love those Toyos.  They are a great tire.  I convinced Dad to put some on his 3/4 chevy and he probably has 30k on them now.  Good choice.

I have 286/75/16 Ko2 on my FJ . I love them, after 28k miles. However, IF they ever wear out, I am going to try the Open Country or the WildPeaks next.

You chose well. After 5 sets of "other" brands I purchased TOYO open CountryHT for my Ford Expedition. Many of the other sets either wore out in as little as 7,000 miles or wore so unevenly that I had warranty claims on at least 3 sets.  The TOYO's after 55,000 miles were still in great condition when the truck was hit in the side with my wife and daughter in front. Both were unharmed but the truck frame was bent and totaled.  I have the AT's on my company Tahoe and they are equally impressive.  Great choice.
