got my truck back yesterday and it seems to be fine now they never found the problem since it only did it about 4 days and the tech was unable to get it on the computer long enough.....they said to bring her back in if it started up again and they would put a machine on it and let me drive it a few days and see if they could catch something...i think it was a little moisture in the lines.....but im just a girl what do i know
