Default Bogging down on acceleration

I have a 2014 FX4 5.0L 3.55 totally stock (so far).

It's not bad but been getting worse. When I start off, the engine seems to bog down before it takes off. Like its choking.

Like I said, not too bad but I can feel it getting worse.

Any thoughts that could help?

It's that darn drive by wire system. Try a tranny re-flash from the dealer...I had to do that twice with my '11 Lariat 5.0. Next stop programmer but hate to do it while in warranty.

Makes sense.

Remembering back to my 2011 FX2 5.0L, has the same issues. Never had it reflashed but I did get a tuner.

I guess I never connected the two.

Thanks

Throttle position sensor may be acting up also. Dealer can check that too.
