    put a level across the front of the bed.
    Keep yourself awake at night dwelling on the issue.
    Realize it doesn't affect your electric bill.

    It's the bed not the window.

    This and that
    I would say that top rail is sitting too high and probably what’s off.

    Having worked Manufacturing & Design for 38 Years. It called Manufacturing and Assembly Tolerance accumulation. All parts have tolerances, sheet metal parts are some of the loosest manufacturing tolerances parts, The sheet metal production processes are inherently inaccurate, and across 4 feet to see + or - 1/4 of an inch is probably the best manufacturing + assembly tolerance accumulation can do. It is physically impossible to build a high volume production Truck and have that perfect over 4 feet apart.

    Thanks for all your input. A 4' ft level says the it's the bed. Not a big deal, just never noticed it before. Now that our season is over and we're not renting as many rooms I'm paying attention to small things on the property that have to be addressed before next year. This is not one of them, my cap should be back next week. I might be able to tell the wife I'm going to have to spend money on a lift fo the truck to fix it. :spending:

    What happened when you suggested you DESPERATELY needed the bed mat to keep things from slipping around? Be honest with us ...

    This again?! When you change your oil just use 0-20 the manual recom... mends.... oh wait. :boink::p
    (it's friday somewhere...)

    But actually - mine is slightly the other way, and it is the front header piece. My bed sides are both "visually" equal to the cab but the right end of my header top is slightly higher than the left. It ain't loose so it ain't bothering me unless I ever get a cap.
