starting issues with 2008 king Ranch

Today I go to start my truck, it turned over really slow, finally started, but the gauges ticking and took 5-10 seconds to start working. This now has happened 4 times today. Battery is new and has checked out as good.

Could it be the starter? any ideas?

Eventhough you say the battery is new and has checked out ok it still could be a bad battery.....I've seen them puke after thirty days.....

Check your connections and terminals and get the battery load tested again....

Clean Grounds

Have you cleaned ALL the negative grounds? Check the two on the firewall by the ECM.

Especially the one from the engine block and the one from the frame.
