Weird Start
So yesterday I drove my truck 300 miles round trip to Philadelphia with no issues. This morning it started right up with no issues. Drove to work, parked it, bossed ask me to go grab him a coffee. Went outside, truck was parked for 2 minutes and started right up again. Pulled into Dairy Barn turned the truck off, got the 2 coffee's, went to start it and all it did was crank. Shut the key off, tried again, crank crank crank no start. Turned it off again, tried 1 more time, crank crank crank and then started.
I have never had an issue like this with the truck before, knock on wood it has been perfect for the year I have had it. I am sure it could be a million things, but what would happen out of the blue like this, especially after the truck running for the 25 min ride to work?
Any ideas would be a big help. I haven't really dived into the motor in the year since I have had it so I am still unfamiliar with everything.
Thanks a lot guys and gals

This is the first time it has ever done it. Other then the occasional cold start in the winter. The truck was up to full operating temperature in this case and was running perfectly fine.
Hopefully someone will give us a hand!

fuel pump could have stuck it is an electric motor and sometimes as they get older they will stickl case and point a new heater at the shop when it kicks on the fan will not turn, you have to give it a "bump" start then it will run.
something else could have been something with the cps intermittent glitch and not telling the injectors when to fire.
last thought if the hpop went dry (reservoir draind out) then there is no oil to fire the injectors.
one last thing easy check, if you have a antitheft system (paps) sometimes the computer will not recognize the key and not let engine fire.
just some random thoughts

If the Hpop went dry, when the truck did start it would run rough due to air, which is not the case.
No anti theft system here

No anti theft here either. What could cause the HPOP to go dry sitting for probably a minute or two probably less? Maybe I will throw a new CPS in it anyway.
Thanks for the ideas!
