Anyone have a lower driver side, mine seems to sit 1\2" or so lower, my "new" truck to me has 86k miles on it

If you're really worried, take it to a body shop that has a frame machine and they can see if it's twisted (Previous accident, being parked at an odd angle for a prolonged amount of time, etc).

If you're not that worried, then just look at it and laugh or upgrade the suspension :)

mine has a slight lean too. i'm not sure on the smaller tank but the 32 gallon tank sits on the drivers side so when full it's a good bit of extra weight all on the drivers side

It could just be the gangsta lean... How much hip hop and rap do you play in your truck? Lol

Mine does as well. I took it in. The driver's side has a half inch lean. They told me it's not enough to worry about or to fix. I assume it's from weight from the motor, gastank and the nee shock system. I will be keeping up with this thread in case someone else has found it as a serious issue.

Never noticed it on mine but my previous truck, Canyon, had an issue with this as well. Both the gas tank and battery were on the same side. I gave my left torsion bar a little crank and levelled it up.
