The last few times it has rained pretty good around here vie noticed that there is considerable moisture on the floor in my cargo/3rd row area. When I try to duplicate it by soaking the rear end the truck I am unsuccessful. Anybody have any idea where to look/start with this? It's been real nice weather here as of late so I can't just sit In the 3rd row while it's raining...

If the water is on the floor then most likely its is not coming from the roof. So either its the floor area, or somewhere on the tailgate leaking water. Check to see if its coming out of the bottom of the tailgate maybe? Also could be trough the lift glass area.

good idea, its definitely not leaking from the top of the truck. Almost seems like its seeping UP through the floor???

Upon further review, I've found that the water seems to be coming from the right rear of the truck right under the rear A/C unit. It's not quite winter here and it got up to 72 today so I did run the A/C and I could see condensation forming on the lines underneath the truck but I shouldn't be getting condensation inside the truck at all, I don't think. I suppose it's worthy of a trip to the dealer, anyone agree? Anyone have smiler incidents?

SW CT,
When mine had water in the rear floor area, I traced it back to the right side, pulled all plastics and found it was coming in at the wiring plug for the rear hatch on the truck side, it would then travel behind all the plastic trim and end up on the floor.
