Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I purchased my 2004 f150 supercab 2x4 august 12 and paid my first payment to ford motor credit september 11. it has 4500 miles on it and already needed four new tires! during the past month i have had seven (7) flats. granted, i drive five miles (one way) down a dirt road sometimes twice a day, but that's exactly why i wanted a truck, i thought it could handle it. i showed the tires to the service department at the dealership where i purchased my truck, their response: it looks like somebody has been peeling out on gravel that gravel is really eating up this truck" "i'm sorry, we can't help you". actually, the tires look like somebody has been doing donuts on barbed wire or run through a meat tenderizer, chewed up. rocks the size of english peas are cutting / puncturing these tires. is anybody else having the same tire issue? *ak
