Welcome to the board.

Is the emergency brake on?

Seriously though, when was the fuel filter last changed?
I'd look at that first.

How many miles on the truck?

I would also suggest the fuel filter.
Depending on how many miles, it might be a good idea to change out the spark plugs

Good luck

Fuel filters are supposed to be changed every 15k miles IIRC. Change that and buy a bottle of fuel system cleaner (I recommend Redline) and you should notice improvements.

Well, if you sig is up to date, I'd pull out that "tornado" thing as it's just interfering with the airflow in your intake for the most part......

Do you have larger then stock tires?
Is that FM muffler a dual outlet model? If so, what dia is the tailpipes?
