Commuting? Get something fuel efficient. A minivan, element or scion type vehicle gets better mileage. The minivan's even have more space. You'll save thousands on fuel and likely maintenance over a few years.

That truck has two different sets of tires on it, the fronts are Falkens and the backs are Yokahoma's while the spare is the original Goodyear.
I would want to know why it has 2 sets of tires on it.
But I am betting that the dealer says that the front 2 were worn out so they replaced them, which case I would have them also replace the back set so they all match.

Because it has some serious alignment issue?

Very well could be.
It is def worth asking, but they wont know or say, they never do.
This is why you need a indie shop to check it out stem to stern.
