In that picture, it is about +/- 5 1/2" after getting it from the dealer. They thought it was OK, but commented that my hitch (Curt Q24) may be too low (its on the middle holes). After measuring the level of the trailer, it is as the nose is 2-3" lower than the center. I intend to move to the top holes on the hitch before the next trip and which should give me 7-8" bed rail clearance and put the Bighorn level to just slightly nose low.
It's definitely a nice truck, tows that Bighorn very easily, even in a very stiff headwind or crosswind.

So we did buy a 5th wheel!
I bought a 2011 Cedar Creek Silverback 29rl. Love it!
It has a crack in the shower surround, but it isn't anything we can't fix. Thank you to all of you that assured me about that.
