Default 2014 truck wont start.

On my way to Dallas this am putting along it sputtered and then died at a light. I restarted it and drove less than 1/4 mile and it died and wont restart. I usually hear the (I think) in tank pump run for a few seconds when I turn the key on. I hear nothing now. Shows 1/2 tank but I put 2 gal in anyway to eliminate that. I checked fuses marked fuel pump and switched the fuel pump relay with one identical from the fuse block. Waiting on the dealer to call me about warranty. They already told me before the Whipple it would void the drivetrain warranty but I don't think this is related. It has spark! Ideas gentlemen?

Have you done any mods to the fuel pump? Is it possible it just kicked the bucket already? If you don't hear it that would be my first guess.

No sir I haven't. Just got off the phone with the dealer. Ill have it towed, diagnosed and he said he would submit a claim to GM and see what happens. If they wont do anything I may as well upgrade if there is anything available. There is a local shop that does 1500 hp Vettes and such so I could get them to do it I suppose.

Yes but it still runs stout lol! It was low mileage with a flowmaster and K&N kit when I got it. I tuned the trans. Don't know if engine was tuned before. I estimate 9.30-9.40 but its never been. Surprisingly fun little f'er!

I hope it that and that they warranty the thing. If they don't I wonder if anyone offers an aftermarket drop in?
