Was going over a bumpy road the other day, and happened to look out my drivers side mirror; noticed the very back of the box/bed was sort of wiggling independently from the cab. Is this normal? I don't mean they're going in separate directions, not that bad, but definitely noticable on larger bumps. This is my first truck, so not sure if it's a truck thing in general or just a bad build.
 
I noticed the same thing in my 1500, not that it should reassure you though. I am pretty sure mine was a lemon....
 
If you mean frame twist, then yeah it's normal for trucks (some brands flex/twist more than others).

Here's an old video showing it a bit (I've seen better videos but can't find any at the moment):

 
Thanks guys for putting my mind at ease!
