Default 2004 Hemi won't start!!

OK, so I bought my truck three months ago. It's an '04 HEMI 4x4 with 60K miles. The truck has had no problems untl this morning. This morning, I went to start it and it fired up, ran for 1-2 seconds then died. The engine cranks and it sounds like it wants to start but just doesn't. I had it towed to the dealership. They get it and it starts for them no problem!!! What could be causing this??

The truck is bone stock.....

Thanks in advance for any help!!

Brock

..could mean a number of things..bad gas comin through, stuck tb...are you tryin to start without depressing the pedal? out of habit, I sometimes push the pedal down, then release, then start... or even try resetting the pcm (04/05s....pull fuse 23, turn key to start position and hold, wait for the seat belt dings, then 2 more dings.. put fuse back in)

The truck shows no codes. The dealership hooked it up to the machine and it shows nothing. Got the truck back and it runs just fine.

....as of now I'm stumped. Just worried it's going to strand me.
