I'm about 98% certain that it's your pre-cat oxygen sensor punking out
I plan on chaning it out tomorrow. I will let you know how it goes. Thanks for the info.

Try cleaning your battery terminals with a wire brush, especially if there is a bunch of crud on them. It's a long shot but a weak connection at the battery can cause all kinds of problems with these trucks.

The battery terminals are nice and clean and I have a 6 month old DieHard Platinum battery.
