I'm not sure I'd recommend an M/T if you are driving in that much snow. The big tread blocks are good in the deep stuff but pretty lousy actually on a plowed or icy road. You could sipe them but then you won't get as good of mileage out of them.

Here's another idea. This is what I do with our daily drivers especially the family car. Drop by the junkyard or whatever and pick up a set of steel wheels for cheap that will fit your truck then mount a set of great snow tires on them (maybe even consider studs) and use them during the winter months. Then, get yourself a set of the km2's on another set of wheels for the warm months when you will be out in the hills wheeling.

If money only grew on trees huh?
