I live in Connecticut and travel northern New England all Winter long.
I am fanatically devoted to a Winter Tire from Europe .
The company is NOKIAN .
They are located in FINLAND and are a former subsidiary of the Nokia phone company.
These tires are made to perform excellently in the harsh Scandinavian Winters.
I have had them on 4x4 pick-ups , all-wheel drive wagons and front wheel drive sedans. In every instance , they have performed much , much better than any
previous Winter tire on had on these vehicles.
Not marginally better , but extremely better .
They have a unique rubber formula that grips better on ice than other tires ,
as well as a tread pattern that improves traction on hills .
Not every tire distributor has them , but their website will locate a local dealer .
Definately worth checking out.

#16 of 16 09 Tundra Double Cab SR5

I'm looking at getting into an '09 Tundra Double Cab, 5.7L SR5. I'm also contemplating throwing a few options on this (bedliner w/ deck rails, fog lights, sliding glass, sidesteps). Was just curious what others have been able to purchase this model for?
This would be my first truck, and I want to do it right - thus looking at the Tundra - but don't want to take a bath.
Thanks for any insight.
