Question Throttle control

Does anyone else have this? The truck is REALY hard to drive slow after it has been warm and sat for half hour or so. Under light throttle the truck eather speeds off or wants to coast to a stop. Its a real pain when good control is important, say picking up hay with someone standing in the back.
.Also not to be too picky, my pasenger window goes up half as fast as the driver window.

The fly by wire is a bit difficult to control at times.
My windows are even for the most part.
It takes 4 seconds for my driver window and 4.5 seconds for my passenger.
Didn't know the right one was slower until you posted this and I timed them.

I just hit both buttons at the same time and its obvious. Did you ever notice there is a slight delay on a lot of functions after start up?

Sometimes after turning over the engine all the dash lights take a second or two longer to turn back on.
It doesn't always do that so that's what makes it strange.

I'm always interested to know what's going on in the programming of all the modules.
Obviously there's not an issue but I notice it.

What other functions do you notice?
I'm curious to know if I've noticed.

Well it seems 2 to 3 sec before the windows begin to move, long enough so for an instant I think they are not working
