I know you said never again, but the new Endurance is suppose to be US made and much better than the Marathon junk.
Goodyear Endurance tires are not "supposed to be US made", they ARE made in the US ... my own Endurance, installed recently wear the
Tire Manufacturers Plant Code MD which indicates they were manufactured at the Goodyear plant in Gadsden, Alabama ... which last I heard is in the good ol' USA. :W Less costly are Carlisle HD trailer tires which are manufactured by or for Carlisle in Meixian, Guandong, China as indicated by the
Tire Manufacturers Plant Code AQ imprinted on the sidewall of any HDs I've seen. Next time I'm at my local dealer I'll note the plant code imprinted on left over Marathons he still has in stock but my bet is it will show they were manufactured in China as well.
You get what you pay for. ;)
