Anyone else have a ~1/8" gap still when closing their tailgate?

2020 Lariat FX4 Supercab with tow package. Still getting familiar with it after picking it up a few weeks ago.

Tailgate functions as it should except it doesn't close flush. Both sides have the same gap so I don't think it was tweaked at some point from abuse. And no signs of previous mods (factory bolt paint don't look touched). I can push it flush but obviously it doesn't stay there.

Not sure if this is normal and my OCD is just getting the better of me. One minor annoyance is I have to shift the tanneu way back to close the tailgate gap which leaves a gap at the front.

Anyone noticed this and fixed it?
