Default Am I OCD on alignments?

So anyone here doing alignments is going to call me an asshole since i know they deal with people like me all the time.

So I go get a 4 wheel alignment on my car.

The car tracks fairly straight but only with the wheel 5-10 degrees left. I know florida has sloped roads but I also did some testing on roads sloped in the wrong direction and I have a slight right pull if i level the wheel out.

Now here are the maybes...

The 2 tires on the front are new, but the 2 rears are used (they have been on the rear of my car for 15K miles or so, I swapped them left to right).

The car drove fine before and a centered wheel gave a centered direction to drive.

These dudes were using a mechanical rather than a laser alignment rack, however the digital print out shows

left front
camber -.8
toe 11+

right front
camber -1.3
toe 11+


They didnt align the rear.

Now ive got a lifetime alignment guarantee but bringing it back they continue to keep the toe at 11/11 and the car dosent get any better.

Should I put pressure on these dudes or just go somewhere with a laser alignment rack? Or am I just being an asshole..
