Ive used my computers for that. And my PCs never crash, although i know that norton antivirus is **** and use other stuff. And dont constantly download third party software. But that is one advantage of a mac, they are a minority in the PC world and viruses are normally built for more common operating systems.

Moral of the story, both OS's nowadays, are super dumbed down. If you want to pay twice as much, get a mac.

With big tread blocks most MTs should be good in the rain at low speeds, which with a jeep you tend to be ALL the time. They channel water well too. They are going to suck at high speed if you have to brake quickly. I like both sets of KM2s but I see why people choose the duratracs because of the snow weather handling.

If you haven't tested other tires how would you ever know that there are better tires out there? I've driven on a lot of tires. That's why I choose the km2s for my jeeps and Michelin for the minivan. If i wanted street tires for either jeep i would go with Michelin LTX M/S2s because you cant beat them on an SUV. Type of tires really depends on what your driving habits are too. Most read reviews and go with them. I like that I can put people in the right tires at work. I know the tires better than them and they trust me cuz I don't bs them.

$20 to get a new operating system too. I don't think I have antivirus software on mine either. Plex is one of the coolest softwares for watching movies. Not sure if that's available for PC. I bought a Mac mini for $500. Bluetooth keyboard and mouse for $120 and hooked the HDMI up to my 61" TV and the optical output to my receiver. Instant home theater center. Cheap and big. Personal preference I guess.

As long as you're happy with them then good. You can drive mine some time it'll you want to see how km2s are. I've never driven on duratracs so I can't say how they are compared to mine either.

I had Toyo Open County M/Ts on my F-150 and they were the best tire I had ever had. Lasted FOREVER, quiet, great handling at speed (80+ mph), mud, snow, ice, dirt, grass. I loved them. I just would prefer to have an American tire. We use Goodyear M/Ts on most of our little trucks here and they kick ***.

2 are for each front wheel and 1 is to connect the hard lines on your rear axle housing to the hard line on your frame.

I put a new power steering pump on tonight. She drives like a dream again. Well, a bumpy dream. Fun catching up. Gotta go to bed.

If I had a spare belt, or there was a 24 hour part store, I would come help you out
