Since I am also looking for tires, I will add my info:
NDT are available but I am not too excited about their wet/snow performance, so I haven't really considered them.
That narrows the field. These "new" Michelin XLs are available on ebay:

I really like the Michelin and based on what I have read, are probably the best choice for all-around performance. However, after contacting the seller, I found out these are a Michelin buy-out and were produced in 2008. The seller explained they have been well cared for, sealed, stored, etc... but I have some real concerns about putting them on the truck (lots of manufactures say anything older than 6-10 years should be replaced, although I am sure some of you guys are running them just fine). If I put them on the truck and drive it for 5 years I will then have tires that are 18 years old - way longer than recommended.
So if not XL, then what?
Universal offers these CAMAC NATO:

These seem like a good alternative to the NDT but I know nothing about CAMAC tire (a Portuguese tire manufacture). Anybody know anything about them?
The STA Superlug is another option but I am trying to get a radial tire if possible. They are available at several vendors.
The Super Swampers that Beast mentions are available but the price is $$$$!
Does this leave me with just 1-and-a-half choices? (CAMAC or maybe STA Superlug). Or maybe NDT and never drive in the rain or snow?
