Fuel Starved

I've noticed that when I'm low on fuel and accelerate hard it starves for gas and boggs.
Did Ford get rid of gas tank baffles and /or a secodary tray in the tank? This was never an issue with the 03's.

I have noticed the same thing. Ford must of put the fuel pick up at the front of the tank.

I had the same thing happen to me twice racing my dad, there would have been about 7-8 litres of fuel left in the tank and the low fuel light was on. It almost felt like the engine was starving for fuel then it got some more and the truck took off again. I went and filled up and no more bogging.
