You'll want to look over your fuel system. Check what the pressure is in the morning vs after it is warm. Fuel filter replaced recently? Fuel injectors need cleaning? Did you add some Techron fuel injector cleaning through the fuel tank recently? How old is the fuel, has the truck been sitting? How about the throttle body, was that cleaned recently? It might be full of carbon.
