Starting Problems?
Hi guys! This is my first post but have learned a lot from this site and it was very useful in doing research when I was looking for a truck. I finally bought a 2005 QC Laramie with 61,xxx miles on her. I love the truck so far and the only real problem I have is starting the thing! Of course the problem didn't occur until I got it home and in my driveway! 
Anyway, it seems like I have to push on the gas petal slightly while turning the key to get the engine start. Once it's running it runs like a champ, idles fine and everything. I was wondering if this is a common thing on the Hemi or should I be concerned? 
Thanks to all in advance!

Reset the throttle could just be the throttle position sensor is off a little bit at start.
