When it dies I have to turn the truck off and restart and it will start and drive for 5 or 10 minutes before it does it again. It has been doing this in the summer for about 3 years. I never have problems in the winter only in the summer when it is hot.
Mine does the samething. Let it sit a while and it'll run for a few miles. It also seems happen when the tank is half or less full. When we fill it up it doesn't do it until it gets down to about half tank again and always when it's above 85.
