Same here. I figured the remote start would help soften it up a bit. Mary loves the remote start in her car. She gets her heated seats nice and warm before she leaves for work.
I kind of wish we'd get some snow so I can see how well these new tires I bought do. I went ahead and got 4 Falken Wildpeaks and will swap them back to the other ones in the spring.

I put new tires on the Buick a couple of weeks ago. I want to see how they do in the snow. I put Michelin Defender LTX's on her. I did notice a big difference in road noise and ride.

The Terra Grapplers I put on the truck seem to ride a little smoother than the OEM tires. I've been liking that. I haven't had a chance to play in snow or mud, though. :(

These Falkens are quiet, but I have noticed a drop in fuel mileage.

I haven't checked enough "local" miles yet to see if there's a difference I can attribute to the tires. I think I've been driving faster because the truck feels smoother, which has led to lower mileage. :crackup:
