Gonna run out of clutch
My truck has 12000 miles on it. When it was new I was surprised by how LITTLE the clutch pedal had to be let out before it started to engage. As time has gone by, now I am worried about how close to the top it has to be before it engages. I'll be seeing my dealership in mid June and have it checked out, but in the meantime I thought I'de ask to see if anyone else has experienced this.

You should have a hydraulic clutch and as such you typically don't have to adjust it. If you're having issues with the peddle changing, check the clutch master cylinder fluid level and check for leaks at the connection between the bell housing and transmission.

a defective/worn master/slave cylinder will change clutch let off position.
Try this:
hold clutch peddle down for 3min and see if the let off point changes from holding the peddle for 3sec.
the slave/master cylinder system should hold pressure the same 3min or 3 sec?
