I am having the exact same problem and the dealers' answers seem to be shots in the absolute dark. One time i even took the truck in for an oil change with fuel filter and the service tech came into the waiting area to ask me my trick to get the thing started. i said hold the key in the "on" position til it starts. sometimes it takes 30 or more seconds while i hear relays and pumps clicking and pumping. both batteries have been changed and several fuel filters but i'm not willing to just let a dealer change computers and fuel pumps and batteries hunting for the fix. let me know if you get something on this but until then, i will just hold the key on to start it.
