I'm not kidding, 20k with 5k rotations. I don't know if I got a bad batch or what, but that really is how many miles I got out of them. I still don't think I'd give them another try for a grand.

i just got my d-max, but I've been running BFG A/Ts for over ten years. I rotate them every 3000 to 5000 miles and I always get 40,000+ miles out of them. I have them on my old silverado ('00 1500 5.3L) and have run them since I bought the truck new. You just have to keep them rotated (I did it when I changed my oil). Anyways, the tire was always great no matter what the road condition. BTW, I was running a 285/75-R16 with stock suspensions and no rubbing.
