Brake Pedal Feeling

So my dad and I have almost identical trucks. Both are 2007 F-250 4x4s with the PSD, I have 37,500 miles, he has 41,000. His brake pedal is as tight as the day it rolled off the lot, and mine has a lot of slop at the top of it, what causes this?

Pads are fine, rotors are fine, everything is wearing evenly and moves freely on both trucks, I can't find anything different, except sure enough I don't have to push his pedal as hard as mine, and his just feels tighter.

At less than 40k miles on a three year old truck? The level is fine, and all the corners are bled correctly, what is fluid going to change?
