Default New truck, no lift or rake? trying to figure out why

So I bought a 2015 long bed crew cab 4wd ecodiesel a few weeks ago and it sits really low, so low ive been asked if its lowered? It does not appear to be from what I can tell but theres no rake in it at all. It does have airbags installed inside the rear springs and if I let all the air out, if anything the rear sits lower than the front? is there special towing packages or such that would have caused this from the factory or am I looking at something else? in the pic below it has 31" tires on 17" rims not even the 33" many come with. im trying to figure out my best options for a mild lift and 33" tires. I dont want to mess up my crazy 34mpg highway mileage but at the same time I dont care for the 2wd look.
