Default Suspension Lean?

Just bought a used 2007 H3 Lux and loving it. While at the local garage for a state inspection sticker I notice that my Hummer slants to the left (drivers side). I borrowed a tape and found that the top of the wheel well was 1.5" lower on the drivers side. The wrench pulled the tire of the rear to see if there was damage from a wreck (carfax was clean) He found nothing. Is this normal? The wrench tells me that the s10 is built to lean to the driver's side. Has anyone else noticed this or do I have some suspension worries ahead of me ?

Lots of them come new from the factory that way either from settling or from being strapped down. The fix is easy to crank the torsion bar up on the side that is low until it is even and then get an alignment

It could also be a bad Leaf, the Blazers (i know this is a forum for hummers) are bad for that since they had alot of waight from the body to carry.... so it might be the same issue
