Michelin LTX tire prices??
Want to get a set of new tires for our just-acquired 2012 GMC 2500HD. Was thinking of getting Michelin LTX (245/75R17) because we had them on our F250 and I liked them. Bought those 4 or so years ag...

Besides having to buy a replacement truck and to spend a grand on new tires and $1500+ on a canopy, it's getting to be an expensive camping season
If you are referring to a Cap, topper, camper shell, or whatever else one might call them (made by LEER, ARE, and others) I would hope with a little research, you can find one much cheaper.
I know in BC things are harder to come by, and more expensive, but you probably can find one across the border rather reasonable. Here in the Southeastern US, toppers bring $500 to $600 and thats about it. Last year I bought an '03 Ram 2500 longbed and long bed toppers for third gen trucks are a little rare. I finally found a LEER made in 2014 (but for a 3rd gen Ram Longbed) for $600 that even had a Thule roof rack option on it. The guy has paid $2600 new for the top in 2014 to fit his 2002 1500 long bed (3rd gen began in '02 with the 1500 and then in '03 with 25/3500 models) and so I got a nearly new top for way cheaper. This is an average going price down here.
Looking at Bellingham WA, I see they, on average, bring more money, and of course, long bed models are hard to find (if that is what you have) but I see a couple that might be fits for you.
Good luck.
