Default starting issues

So I have a 2018 F50 5.0. This just started recently on it.. When I go to start it starts right up, no issues at all.. After driving it for daily commute home and turn it off, then go to start it again it wont start and sounds like battery going bad.
Had battery checked no issues.

Again it only does this in the afternoons after my driver home. Yesterday drove 45 miles to the vet, turned off truck. It sat for 10 min went to start it and it hesitated.. Then drive home, left again after 1 hour and no issues at all, no issues starting on a cold morning like we had today either.

Anybody else ever have this happen. auto zone checked battery and alternator

Thanks

Take it to an actual starter and alternator shop to have it tested. I wouldn't trust auto zone to check for anything, or any other parts store for that matter.
