stuttering, lack of power, hesitation,

Whens the last time your fuel filter was changed? because a clogged filter will restrict the flow and have similar symptoms.

i bought the truck about 2 months ago now, and the guy said he recently changed it... i think i may change it to have an exact date of when it was changed

How old looking is your fuel filter? If its still nice and shiny then it was replaced.

Isn't a 2005 is it? May have the infamous injector issue if so.
