Default breaks sticking on front helppp

after i drive my truck around 15 miles or so pedel gets real touchy ,in other words you barely touch them and thy grab ,i was on a slight grade in neutral and the truck wouldnt even move unless i gave it gas,i parked the truck and you could smell the front brakes ,let cool for couple hours and pedal feels normal until drive a couple of ten miles, the front pads look new could it be the pads or the calipers ,i know these are aftermarket pads

you sound like a prime candidate for new calipers

check your brake fluid, make sure you dont have too much. If thats fine then id say new calipers.
