Survey says... Goodyear sucks big time!!!!!! - Ford F150 Forum - Community of Ford Truck Fans
Here is a very small documentation of some goodyears I have seen fail. I have never met a tire profesional that didn't despise goodyear. I worked for 2 different shops over 15 yearss with around 20 co-workers amd not one liked goodyear at all.
We had a regional sales lady that used to work for goodyear. I asked her of she liked goodyear and she couldn't say much good abouth there quality and said she got nothing but **** for working for shitty goodyear.

Very Nice to see such detail in your build up thread!!! keep up the good work.
Curious, were did you remount the Evap solenoid to???
I don't know if I agree that Good Year is the worst tire, But they definitely didn't last near as long as they should have on my Silverado. I was definitely disappointed as the were recommended to me. I liked the Bridgstones AT Duelers that replaced them but they were pricey. I went with Nexxen's this last time because I was strapped for cash. There decent tires, but I think I will go back to Bridgestones or something comparable next time. The Nexxen's already out lasted my Good Years and still have plenty of tread left.

So far I've been very happy with the wrangler duratrec's. They have not let me down yet.

The truck was parked on flat ground with 33" tires, no modifications required. FYI, the stock T-bars were also maxed out.

I am not sure if you documented this build sufficiently. At least the IRS might be able to find one flaw in your paper work.
I would kill to have you organization! I am far too much of a procrastinator to document all of this data. I sure hope this truck lasts for a long time and fulfills all of your dreams!!
P.S. I just say you went all the way to "consumables" holly cow! I did go threw your trash and noticed that you left 2 grams of brake clean in one of the cans. That means you can adjust the cost buy 12% on one can.

I know I tend to get carried away...
