aloha, Derrick
Slotted rotors are not any more warp resistant nor do they last any longer than non slotted rotors, they just slightly increase stopping power. so if you want a little extra stopping power than yes you will want the slotted version. I usually reccomend slotted rotors for people that use their trucks to tow heavy loads. If your truck is just a daily driver, you really dont need slotted rotors.

You dont have to change the rears at the same time as the fronts.

I would reccomend the Hawk LTS compound pads for your truck.
