Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo 3

Towards the end of last winter here in Colorado I was in a deceive battle between this and the Firestone Destination XT.
The thing that finished it off was the price being just a little bit lower. As to no surprise, everyone I worked with made fun of me for getting Bridgestone's to begin with.
Why you might ask?
Well, I was working at a Ford Dealership and way back in the day Ford and Bridgestone had a big mess with the Exploder.
So far I am glad I chose the tire for what it is. I was really curious as to how well it would do compared to other All-Terrain tires.
Taking a few basic trips I haven't had many issues for traction and that was without lowing tire pressure whatsoever (yes I know stupid of me but I didn't know and didn't have a tire inflator either).
My biggest surprise was in a nice jagged rock field. this is something you try to avoid for obvious reasons but I wasn't thinking at the time. I was stopped taking in the nice view and happened to notice one of the sharp jagged rocks pocking the side wall heavily. after I left the spot I looked at the tire and it wasn't even scratched.
If anything tire technology has come a long way from back in the day.
For other terrains(exception of mud) it hasn't really had much of any problems.
If anything it would be a good entry-level tire for someone starting out but doesn't want to go too far.
