Open to suggestions. I have a 2003 4.7. Today the truck kind of hesitated to start two different times. Almost seemed as if the battery didn't have enough juice. (I do landscaping stop and go all day) so I figured it could be the starter going out. Took it to Auto Zone, battery checked out good, alternator good, starter good. However, the battery is 3 years old. Is it possible for the battery to test good and still be losing cells? If not, what else should I check for?

*Note the truck is pulling a trailer all day with trailer lights if that could have anything to do with it.

Same thing happened to me yesterday. One time.
Had a near stroke for 2 seconds though!
