sluggish.

For a few weeks now my truck has been really sluggish on startup. If I don't let it warm up atleast 10 min it will have trouble shifting, accelerate really slow. When I start it. It will sound like the engine is going to die. When its warm it will run great. What could it be? This is a 06 f250 6.0

First thing is to check your ficm voltages according to the sticky in the tech folder. Batteries and alt. should also be checked at this time.
