My daily runner needs new shoes.

Size: 265/65/17

I'm looking at Michelin Cross Terrains at $193 a foot, versus
Goodyear Wrangler SR-A's at $179. In other words, the price is
close to the same.

So, how the hell does one decide, one over the other?




What's the real make & model of the car?


Toyota 4Runner V8, auto, part-time 4WD.


How do you like that vehicle? My wife has a Toyota
Highlander....very solid. She loves it.


Both are top-drawer vehicles. I bought a 4Runner because it is built on
a traditional truck frame, and therefore is more rigid than a vehicle
with monocoupe construction. The Highlander is very appealing, though.


Where is it made?



Highland.


If you hang on a couple of years, you'll be able to purchaase a RAV4
from a spanking new plant in Woodstock, Ontario.
