Jon, "premium" gas is not really "better" gas. It just has improved anti-knock properties (which, ironically, can make the engine harder to start in very cold climates).
You can still get a bad tank of gas - it might contain water or dirt. It all depends on the condition of the tank it's been stored in.
However, I would suspect the temperature sender might be the culprit too, especially since you say the truck is not having any other symptoms.

Thank you for responding as well. Yes I am aware of the anti knock properties. I was just trying to make the point that I dont run on the cheapest stuff I can find. I buy my fuel from a limited number of stations. I havent had a fuel related problem in over 20 years. But that doesnt rule it out . If it was fuel related , would the idiot light shut itself off with the consumption of a tankful or so of gas ?

On our last trip, we stopped at a station I normally use in Hatch, NM for gas. The fuel delivery was slow, so, I quit putting gas in after about 1/2 gallon and went to another station were the flow was normal. I suspect the first station had clogged filters.
You could always clear the code with the Edge and see if it comes back.

Well the idiot light did shut off, I cleared the code on the edge. Ill keep an eye on things. It still appears to be running fine. I was running on or about near empty before the light came on. Damn truck is always so thirsty. Its time to refill with the go go juice once again. Ill keep my fingers crossed. thanks to all.
