Default Common Cabin Leak Points

Common leaking points other than the third brake light...

Yesterday I was running a new CB wire from the rear to the front console area. I removed the plastic foot protector guard on my passenger side front door and it was full of water! Like FULL of water! We had a steady rain for two days in SC due to that winter storm coming in and I guess that was enough to fill the cab. I didn't check the drivers side due to time constraints. I have a sunroof and those drainage tubes are clear but I know water is getting past the sunroof glass seal. That's what the drainage hoses are there for I suppose...

Anyways, I'm looking for common places this truck like to leak from so I can start fixing the issue. Does anyone know the drain areas for this generation? Truck info: Lariat supercrew cab w/sunroof, and powersliding rear window.

Thanks,
Nate

In addition to above. Look in your A pillar to make sure your boot between the cab and door is installed properly. Mine came out one day and caused similar situation.

Is there a particular spot to look for at the rear window?
