'groaning' noise
I have a 2019 1500 RST, almost brand new, and im curious on what I would call a Groaning noise. it happens only after sitting for a long period of time (overnight let's say) and typically in the morning when I very first start to drive away from my driveway, which has a couple of small bumps, then it goes away.... unless I go offroad over larger bumps then it groans again, basically over each bump. I can't quite.pinpoint if it's from the front or rear, and almost seems like it's a mechanical/electrical system making noise, almost by design. has anyone else experienced this?

Does it make noise or does the noise get louder if you turn the steering wheel in either direction?
I know that with some hydraulic rack and pinion steering racks, they develop what is known as morning sickness when they age.

No, turning has no effect. literally only on first roll out of my driveway, where it is a little bumpy, and if I am off road and the suspension is flexing a bit.

I am clueless. Only thing I can think of is that something that moves up and down, like a control arm, might have "creaky bushings" that are responsible.
Good Luck!
