Ok maybe this in normal but thought I would check with you all. Alright after my truck has been sitting for a while and I got to start it up, my volts are at 14.3, but after I drive for a while my volts go down. Usally after driving for 30 minutes the volts read 13.6 and will stay steady, this is also while driving. Even if I turn the truck off and start it back up it still reads the same. Only way I can get the volts to go back up it to let the truck sit for a while.

I would not worry about it as I think that is in the range of normal,you are really in tune with your truck I can say that for you!

Perfectly normal. The 14.3 volts is on the high side, but still in the normal range.

You have a healthy battery / charging system.
