The customer service person knew nothing about their products...he could only tell me they were a top seller and basically read me back what is on their website. I had to tell him the name of the tire 3 times and then he asked me for a part number

In the end there was no additional info beyond the website presentation...I realize you guys have first hand experience which is probably the best to consider...it was just disappointing that the manufacturer wasn't more engaged.

I also spoke with the service manager at the local Midas store...he helps with a lot of our odds and ends. He said they were a good tire, but frequent rotations were needed to prevent a choppy wear issue.

The research will continue for a little longer...thanks for all the help.

I'm not sure if they're heavy enough for what you're doing, but I put Cooper Discover AT3s on my truck and my Expedition. I tow a 24' car trailer with the Ex and they do excellent. They wear great and are quiet on the highway.
