I have 35" BFG AT KO's on my truck and use it as a DD, also with about a 40 mile round trip. I have kept a log of my milage since the very start and get a solid 15mpg overall average. I use a spreadsheet formula that factors in the number of rev/mile (according to the tire MFG.) and according to it my mileage has remained basically constant. If you want to see a copy of the spreadsheet just let me know.

I do have one comment on the KO's. They suck in sticky mud. Out west where its dry they must totally rock, but here in the northeast I wish I had bought a siped MT instead. They clog in the mud and become slicks. Thats my $.02, take it for what its worth.
