Cape, I have heard the same thing on the Fortera's.
Tire rack and everyelse that I have read about them rave about them. If i keep the set up I have long enough to wear out the tires I will be looking at them very hard.
Of course the way everyone is going to the 20"s, according to the tire dealer that does my work, He says that they are constantly adding updated list which is starting to include 20" tires as they become more and more popular.
All-terrain in a 20",,,,,,,,,hmmmmmmmmmmm could be interesting.
