I guess to each his own... I took off and sold brand new Cross Terrains as they did not handle well in the dry, wet, snow or ice. One of the worst tires I ever owned.....JMHO
Any reason why you purchased the firestone's for a summer tire?

LOL... yup to each his own I guess.... BTW, I don't use the cross terrain's in winter. I would imagine they would be bad for that. I like em because they are comfortable? I do alot of HWY driving which then turns into a gravel road....not much city driving.
I previously bought the Destination's for three reasons.
1) They were really cheap at the time.
2) They were the same price as Dayton Timbreline AT's. I previously bought Timbrelines and really didn't like them, so I thought I'd try out the Destinations.
3) I usually only run new sets of summer/winter tires for two years and then sell them off, alternating on my two trucks. So I'm buying new summer and winter tires sets once a year. I usually like to experiment with manufacturers and tires based on price and online reviews, etc. So one year I bought Destinations for my truck ran them for two summers and sold them. That's it.

i use the destination M/Ts on my yukon this is my second set i am so happy with them i never get stuck in the snow with them my dodge has got stuck 2 times this year but not the yukon for a mud tire they arent too loud unless you have the windows down my only gripe with them is the ride suffers a bit but ima bit of a redneck from NC so it doesnt bother me
Those tires are nuts! IMO there a strictly offroad tire, not something I would drive on the highway with daily....If I had a stict plow truck I may consider them but I need something best of both worlds....

not too bad actually to be dead honest i didnt notice a difference going from the bf goodrich A/T (good tire LONGGGGGG LIFE) as far as handling went they handle best on soaked roads or snow they never hydroplane plenty of runoff 
I used to work at a tire shop, and we sold both of those tires. Everyone seemed to really like the Destinations. We had more than a few returns of the revos. I am curretly trying to decide if I should buy the Destinations or Michelin LTX MS/2. Im thinking the Michelins, but they are really expensive.
edit: We sold the destination LE. I dont really know about the AT.

Why did people return the Revo's?? I NEVER heard that in my life!
The destination LE's actually suck, decent dry traction but less the favorable ice, light snow and deep snow nevermind treadwear. Are you sure people didnt return the LE's and buy the Revo's?
Do yourself a favor buy the MS2's FORGET the Destination LE's!
I dont really remember the main complaint, noise I think. Even the manager tried the Revos and traded them for the Destinations. I do remember the salesman saying the Destinations wernt very good in the snow, but they were pushing blizzaks so I dont kow if that was just an angle or not.
