Ride height

Ok question....
New here so please bare with me.
I have a 2018 Cougar MKS just got new truck and now I ride little nose high. Does this look to high? I lowered my hitch down 1 hole and that's all I did.
Any help would be great.
Thanks to all

I'm no 5er but your truck appears to be on a hill and the trailer in a dip.

Was this how the dealer set it up? If so I would return to them for a correction.
The dealership that did mine had the RV inside then took my truck inside to do the setup on level concrete.

Yes they did. I had them lower the hitch one hole before I left. I have 1 hole left with clearance to spare. Th he dealer is a hour away but if I lower it to last hike and looks bad I will. Thanks

The distance between the truck bed and the trailer should be 4-6". If you "off road" should 6-8". When I went from a 2005 Silverado to a 2011 Silverado I had to raise the hitch one hole.
