Trucks have indeed gotten better. Magnitudes of scale better. I daily drive an 87 k-10 and would not trade it for the world. But I am also not naive to say anything about it, aside from its size, is better than a new truck - especially one engineered for this type of activity.

Having put nearly 200K miles combined on Michelin Defender LTX highway tires on two different 4x4s (a Frontier and a 4Runner), I know why David loves those tires so much. I also understand why he got stuck where he did. I am actually surprised he made it through some of the earlier obstacles without getting stuck, in fact. I'm still running the Michelins on the Frontier for my daughter to use it as her daily, but I upgraded to Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws on the T4R.

Once again, this just shows how amazing the GMT400 platform is and the G80, while not elegant, just simply works when you need it. Put some BFG KO2’s on David’s truck (and a full tank of gas) and I bet it would handle all of those obstacles without the mule.
