I'm running Cooper Discoverer ST MAXX on my Ram 2500. They work well in snow and for plowing.

I just put some Cooper Discover AT3 on the Silverado. Today in this “Wintery Mix” I was amazed how well they did. Such an improvement over the whooped mud boggers that were on there. They were down to about 4/32 of tread and were absolutely horrible. Needed 4wd when I shouldn’t have. Now, the truck drives great
In 1961?
I have smashed a saw or two weight testing timber or trying to modify the shape of my wrap handle.For some reson it never really worked out like I had planned.
You mean like this?

They pay me too much to walk away…
I’m only 42, I think if I can last to 55 I should be set
Kids colleges will be paid for and I should have a decent nest egg. Gonna not retire, but definitely scale back
My dream, absolute DREAM would be to go to school for gunsmithing and open a shop
But, that is a dream…..
The worst I had was a Detroit Locker (No Spin) in the front, they disengage one side automatically to unload the pressure. When that happens you do a lane change without touching the steering wheel. I replaced it with an air locker as soon as I could.

Thank goodness it wasn't an arctic edition with heated carb and wrap
Could have been... I was very young when he got it. He had that Scout for a very long time so I learned more about it over time.
What would you focus on?

My scrounge claim.
A twisted mess of spring and twist loaded blown down trunks, unstable root wads, iced over creeks. Hung up wind blown snags and wind sheared tops everywhere. A fun puzzle full of good seasoned Spruce. A bit of it is to far gone punky wood, but about 50% of it is STIHL good and sound enough for decent firewood.
Two of today's three OVERLOADS.

G'day fellers,
I'm stihl plugging away catching up but thought you could all use some fishing pics
We went down to my parents' place on the coast over Christmas. The weather was mostly not great but we did have a few good days. There was a huge school of Australian Salmon in the estuary. They're great fighters for their size and hit anything shiny. They were all in the 3-4lb range which is good for the estuary.
Frequently we'd have double hookups and no time to ditch one fish before netting the next
Fed 7 of us for four days

Yup like that and worse. Sometimes they are repairable. Sometimes not. Ive only ever totaled one saw into pieces beyond repair. Saws are tuff!
Follow ur dream, that’s what they’re made for
Those are very popular around here, I run them on my pickup. Current set is at 35,000 and on their 3rd winter. Traction is still decent, still riding good but I'll probably need to replace them this fall.
I have a similar thought in my head to go part time at 55, and enjoy life a bit more. Unsure if thats in the cards with some of the things my wife and I have been talking about recently.(buying a place with more property has come up several times now.)
I really hope everything works out in your favor.
