I agree also.
I too am using Michelins on my F-250 and have since I first replaced the
original tires.
Sam's club works well for me. I hit their automotive section early in the
morning, which
means little, or no waiting line. Then, while they are replacing the tires,
is a good time
to do whatever shopping I need to do in the rest of the store.
I finally replaced my original batteries after 3 1/2 years and 110,000 miles
last month at
Sam's. Good prices for batteries too.
