Question Loss of power while driving.

Hey guys, hope you're all doing well. Recently I've noticed that the truck is having trouble accelerating and when I am up to speed it feels as if I am applying light pressure to the brakes every so often when I'm not. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Anthony

Always start with the fuel filter.

Fuel filter or maybe injectors? 04-05's are notorious for this

If it feels like your brakes are being applied then it might actually be your brakes. Don't the rear brakes have a tendency to lightly apply pressure over time?
