mostly truck requires what i consider a lot of pedal push to accelerate from a stop and maintain speed. occasionally it drives "perfect". the amount of throttle to accel and cruise is normal to me.
I considered closed/open loop issues but the issue occurs at any time cold/hot or otherwise I incorrectly identified the map sensor as being bad (didn't account for altitude) and so replaced. After getting tired of researching egr valve as a possiblity I swapped it with a new one. I've done a vacuum check and fuel pressure check. fuel pressure was at 56/58 for [on not running]/[idling] all checked out.
possible related issues
engine does a single "shake" occasionally
also when cruise is set and truck reaches 5th gear it will refuse to down shift unless speed drops by 5 at which point it down shifts 2 gears. Cruise responds normal as long as it doesn't reach 5th gear and TC lockup. Took voltmeter to throttle controller and noticed wide open throttle yet still no down shift
