Air leaks around doors
I have a 2000 Chevrolet 2500. Air leaks around both doors during windy conditions and it drives me nuts. Any way to tighten the cabin up without dropping a ton of coin?

I can push the weatherstripping up before i close the door and it usually helps.. But once the wind picks up, it gets bad again. Can push the weatherstripping up as much as you can while the door is closed and it gets back quiet for a lil while. Maybe some adhesive to hold it up might help?

On Lexus's at work, I open the door, roll down the window, and "pull" the top of the door in to tighten it up against the body lol (it takes some force and you often hear a "crack" noise...I've done this on $100,000+ LS460L's 
)...I've often thought of doing this to my own truck but for now I just live with the wind noise...
