Tire Wear

Ok all you experts. I know a guy who has a 2017 GMC 3500 with 16k miles on it. He has experienced abnormal tire wear of the front tires. He claims a Chevy dealer told him that towing a heavy toy hauler will cause abnormal tire wear on the front of the truck seems like BS to me but I'm no expert.

Thoughts?

    Sounds like BS to me. For starters the front end has no more weight on it with the TH attached than without. I've weighed my rig and found that to be true. I've got over 60k on my Chevy and the tires have been wearing fine and most of those are towing miles. He should get his front end aligned.
