Default Tire question

Hey all. I bought a 2006 Ram 1500 quad cab 2wd with a hemi about a month ago (new). It has Goodyear Wranglers on it. The truck has 600 miles. Anyway, my father noticed today that the tread is substantially deeper on the rear tires than the front. I don't see any signs of uneven wear on the fronts and it drives straight. The numbers on the tires are the same. Anyone know if the put tires with different tread depth on the front and rears? I can't see 600 miles accounting for the difference even with a problem. Any ideas?????

It'll be the same tire all around. Should be rotated every 10,000k's.

Something isn't right... go back to the dealer.

Maybe it was on the lot for awhile and had a few joy rides already and the dealer rotated them already??

It was probably on the lot for a while, but only had 60 miles on it when I bought it. Guess if you burn out for 60 miles. . . .
