    Looks like they adjusted it from negative to positive, but still within spec. A shop that specializes in alignments should be able to get those numbers perfect for the truck.

    Just out curiosity wonder what the foot print would look like if you chalked the tires and rolled them couple times. (I know numbers are numbers)

    Camber spec is +0.5; you're at +0.8.
    Toe spec is +0.05...
    It's an illusion from positive toe and perspective.

    Positive camber: is reduced under dynamic conditions(when driven), puts load on the inner rather than outer bearing, makes turning easier and has somewhat of a stabilizing effect.

    Positive toe is also reduced under dynamic conditions.

    If you're stock, you should be able to get
    +2.2 caster
    +0.5 camber
    +0.05 toe
