memphis, how hard are you on your truck? not that you are doing anything wrong but I think there are some learn values in the pcm that can cause this. try resetting the pcm and driving like a grandpa for a week and see if things get better. My truck was originally bought by me for an employee to drive, he was busy, always in a hurry. when I would drive the truck after him it would do what you are describing until it got used to a more relaxed driving style.
no kidding...ive noticed mine has had a slight bog, but ive been kinda rough on her the last week or two...im going to try your trick...nice info.

I dropped 1fast2liter a message and he said it was his O2 sensors..
Question I have, where are they both located? I have no cat and only see one sensor. I looked all around for the second harness and couldnt find it...
Im gettin a different exhaust put on Monday to help solve the problems. But while I was under the truck, I unhooked the O2 sensor and went for a drive. The truck did not drive any differently. Nor did the check engine light come on..
Will the code reader tell me if its my crank shaft sensor?
Thanks again!

I just had all kinds of issues with a Napa crank sensor, never got any codes.
After lots of research on here replaced it with Oem crank sensor.
Issue is long gone and OEM sensor was only $15.00 more then Napa's.
Lesson learned: ONLY!! buy OEM crank and cam sensors.

Thanks for the feedback!
I drive it like a grandma on her way to church.. Im pretty easy on her! hahah I get some heat from the boys for driving her so easy.
Im thinking im gonna change the plugs again, and reset the pcm.
That doesnt do it; OEM CPS, Another new O2 sensor. If none of that works, the last thing I can think of is fuel pump.. Ive checked countless times; the cap, rotor, wires, and routed them.
Im runnin out of ideas haha.
