As soon as I open the door, I take my finger and wipe from the rain gutter to the A-pillar, it sets up enough surface tension to control the flow, then it runs down the pillar instead of dripping free to the seat.

If you're in a parking lot, simply pull the front tires up on the concrete curb/stop. Should provide enough slope to drain the gutter :)
TSB 4077- solution 3 inch Mopar lift on the front, none on the back- creating a 5% rear downslope; water runs to the bed- then out of water channel. Problem solved.

Unavoidable up here in Oregon, was thinking of using some type of sticky / tar tape across the seam and see if that helps any. Wife made the comment on how much we spent on the truck after she got hit on the head and face with a direct stream of water . . .

Seeing as we have yet to invent teleporters - since without opening the doors I can't get in, I guess the use is to just look pretty on the driveway.

You could climb out the rear window, I guess.
