Driving me crazy....help!

So here's the deal....Got a known good new battery...tested good new alternator and regulator! So the manual says the battery should be charging at around 14.4v when revving around 2000 rpm. Here's the problem...when the truck is not running the battery reads 12.7v....truck at idle the battery reads 13.65v...and when I rev the engine (driving conditions) it stays at 13.65v (should be around 14.4v) and is causing the battery light to stay on! Checked everything I could check and test! I tested my little heart out! Hopefully someone has had this problem before and knows a fix or someone has an idea I havent tried!

Truck is 2004 F150 w/ 5.4L Triton Engine
