I've been trying to find the time to drop the truck off for a few things.
This is the one that concerns me the most. The last oilchange the level on the dipstick probably rose a inch, reeked of fuel.
When I drive it's a minimum 30 minute trip, I find it hard to believe the fuel isn't being burned off as some people say short trips and the truck not getting up to temp is the cause...mine definitely gets up to temp.

I have posted the UOA's on the bobistheoilgiy forum to get some more perspective. I'm beginning to believe this is the new "normal".

Oil containing 9% fuel seems extremely high to me. 3 or 4% might be more common, but 9%? There's a reason it was highlighted in red on your oil report. I'd get it in to have the dealer check the pump asap.
