    Tires

    I am looking for advice on a better brand of tires to put on my 2004 F-350 SD 4x4 DWD. I tow my Landmark Augusta with it. The truck came with General tires on it but I haven't been happy with the tread life. With as many folks that tow, hopefully someone has had tires that work great for them.
