Love it! That cage looks like a PITA to get in and out around, but nicely built! Are those 33's or 35's?

They are 35's. Once they are worn out I'm think of doing some suspension work along with bigger axles for 39.5's. The cage is a pain to maneuver around but then again it is built for protection and that bar will keep you safe if you flop it on its side. Some pictures from yesterday's first run in the snow.

How cold was it out?  Seems like your cab is a bit drafty.
