Default Annoying wind noise on 03 Dodge CTD 2500

I love my truck, but I hate the wind noise I get. At speeds of 60mph or greater it feels like both my doors are going to blow off. You can actually see the top of the door unable to maintain a seal and shutter back and forth. Its like turbulance. I don't know if its because of the huge mirrors or what but it drives me crazy. I have had the truck since April and I have put up with it but now were going to take it to MIchigan and I think it will drive me nuts before I get there. Also I got another annoying noise. It sounds like plastic smacking the windshield. I checked the front cowling and everything seems tight. Are these common problems in this year of truck? Anyone else have the same thing. The truck had aftermarket bug shield on it but other than that its stock. I wouldn't think a bug shield would cause that much turbulance but I don't know what else to do. Any suggestions?

Suppose to be a TSB for this IIRC - change out door seals?

There is a TSB if door seals are torn, but if not, you can either do it yourself or have dealer adjust the doors. Thats - adjust the hinges.
