After adding the techron cleaner to the gas tank, the problem started to be less and less. After a week, it has completely gone away. The truck starts first try just as it always has. So now the big question, what caused the problem? could it have been something that got cleaned up with the Techron? or could it be that the trouble was going away on it's own, and the use of the Techtron just happened to be at the same time?
I'll probably not be able to answer that question, but if someone out there that is familiar with these type of scenarios has any info that might help to correct it before it happens again, Please add to this thread.
Thanks everyone for your help
