    My factory tires, bf goodrich long trail t/a, on my ford f-150 king ranch bought new in 2006 lasted only 21,428 miles. They gave me a lousy $236. And it cost me $708.to replace all 4. Now, 18,270 miles later there are less the 4/32 left on the tread. On a recent oil change, a dealer would not rotate my tires because of the ware. Now i am being told - sorry no warranty left! - i am livid! Can anything be done? *tr
