what is the road like?

very worn?

wheels grooves from overweight trucks?

those can cause a car to pull under acceleration

It does it on all roads, and it'll do it if i just tap the gas a little from doing a constant speed.
I was hoping its a normal thing with the differential on these cars.

I've had multiple alignments and rotations and my car still pulls to right, I've learned to accept it.

On a two lane highway, the passing lane will most likely pull your car to the left. Most highways have varying grade levels for drainage purposes.

I guess some cars do it and some don't. I'll quit thinking something is wrong now since other cars do it also.
thanks

most roads have a slight grade to them to help in the removal of rain. so a car is always going to pull one way of the other. i thought my car had a problem too, but i do over think every little knock, skip, ting, ping, snap, pop, and thud way too much.
