How much, if any, torque management have you had removed? If none thats probally the culprit.

Do you have the fly by wire or cable throtle. If it's the fly by then thats probably part of it and good old tq management is the other.

Well, do you have a custom tune on the truck? If not I agree with the rest TM is the problem. The tune allows you to remove this so the pedal wont feel so weak. I hate TM!!!

I had this problem.I used to floor it and my truck would cruise, just like the pedal wasn't ever floored. I would have to let up and hit it again. I don't recall ever having the problem again with my Nelson tune.

my truck did that right before the transmission went out, id floor it and it would just kinda bog.... then after 2 or 3 seconds it would drop down and take off.

Mine barked at me. I think it came from the tires.
Is this normal?

Sounds like torque management to me. Mine does that crap all the time.
