Default Door Issue

Hello all well here is another issue with door alignment good thing is I haveint signed anything yet. My truck came in today after 8 weeks so I decided to run down to the dealer and give it a good look over, I had my list ready and all pretty much checked out good, the wavy/crinkled weather strip on the cab is there but very light I can live with it seeing that I don't see it, I will have to check the pano sunroof tomorrow for the leak. The one problem I found on my hour look over on the truck was the passenger side rear door was not flush and the rear driver side one was so I went to the other 15 2015 F150 on the lot and a few had the same issue but not all.
Wondering if I should let this go or just walk away seeing that I have no obligation to the truck as of now. Here are the pics of the right and left doors.
Sorry I have to re install the pics real quick

Can they adjust it to make it line up? Id give them a chance at least. If fixing it requires body work then walk away. If it doesn't make any wind noise and it's just cosmetic then make them reduce the price of the truck or walk away. It's up to you. You waited a long time for a ducked up product and I'd be pissed. Write ford a professional letter with pictures.

been down that road and still on it..(love that color BTW) my doors where inset but really hard to shut . Since they brought them flush it sounds like an air catch going down the road. They seamed quieter when they were inset on the rears. Drive it, if their quiet and shut nice, DO NOT ADJUST THEM...sorry to be dramatic, but I'll take function over cosmetics these days with my 2015

Thats what I was thinking of doing driving it and seeing if it makes sounds if not just leave it alone but now that I know its like this I'm not sure if I can live with it. I was really planing on keeping this truck for a few years plus this is my first truck.

Yeah...your supposed to be in the honey moon stage of the purchase still. If your critical at this point, you will never be happy with it. Find one that works for you, don't cram a square peg in a round hole. I am amazed at how many things I over looked on the purchase. Things I should have known better to catch. And unfortunately is has not been things that are simply addressed. All cars have issues to some degree. But I don't know why these door alignment problems keep presenting themselves in these new trucks. At some point you would think it would get figured out and addressed.
