Thanks all who contributed to my question. I went with the Continental TerrainContact AT 285/70R17, based on a lot of research and the performance of the Continentals my wife’s JLU Sahara run. Quiet and smooth ride so far.
Plenty of tread left on the four 285/70R17 Falken Wildpeak AT tires...
If you only had a promo code….
I want to upgrade my roll-n-lock tonneau, but I can’t justify what you charge for the max-trak t-slot rails, which weren’t available when I bought mine in May 2021.

This guy was at a Juneteenth pool party yesterday. Some people played stupid games and won stupid prizes. Just posting the news. It’s a tragedy that there was a shooting and people got hurt. This interview is insane though.
I rotate at 6-7k, run 36psi, pretty even wear, they have good tread on them, but I haven’t measured. I’m not the only one who thinks they got louder after 40k. Interesting.
Anyone run Continental Terrain Contact in a 285/70R17 or a 315/70R17?

My Falken Wildpeak AT tires are at 45k miles and have grown louder, to a point I’m not appreciating them—neither is the wife. I drive 98% on pavement, long drives. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good highway tire that is quiet and has good wet traction in a 33 or 35 for my 17x8.5...
I keep calling my dealer service department and they say there’s a backlog and they’re not getting enough of the parts in at a time. I’ve supposedly been on their wait list since February.
Quadratec has one too—I have one.
ET’s is on sale for a great price.

Too overcast in my area (MD) last night, but will look again tonight. Weather doesn’t look favorable though.
A friend of mine in southern Maine got these last night.
Yes. 2018 JLU Sahara for the wife. I also had a 2018 JLU Sahara, but sold it and bought a 2021 JTR Diesel—needed the truck bed and missed the 2012 F-150 FX4 OR.
UConnect isn’t the best interface. Ford sync was terrible too. I have no issues if connected to my 8.4 by wire. I have minimal issues if I use my wireless CarPlay device—occasionally have to disconnect and reconnect the adapter. I have an iPhone 15 pro, stay current on iOS, and I use this...
