I ordered one. Will be in late next week.
I'll probably go with Big Horns on it and sell the runflats as new takeoffs.

Better than My 500. What do you think Old TrucksBradM wrote:Ken wrote:Can't wait for the pix Brad....
Yeah, I'll be taking photos.
I wonder what kind of gas mileage it will get. Chad do you know anything about that?
I'll probably still carry a flat pack though it has the two tanks of over eight gallons total.

I love my MV7.........and yes it is a friggin tank.
I STRONGLY recommend replacing the rear hub to a-arm bolts with grade 8 hardware.....this is the only thing I have broken, as in 3 times....the last time it was a front side one, and with the weight and sping rate, it ripped the a-arm in half......extended warranty says the a-arm is part of the frame so not covered.....grrrr. but dealer fixed me up anyhow....
Dont expect good gas mileage, mine got about 4mpg for the first 200 miles, now I am somewhere around 10 or 11 with 500 miles on it.

PS I was going to do the same thing with tires, but ended up liking the run flats alot.......they are really very good tires, if not just a little rough riding on.
