Default start trouble

I went to store in and back out total about 25min truck would not start, checked under hood for loose anything, went back around tried again and started right up.
drove back to work, about 10min drive, parked let sit about 10-15min, would not start, looked under hood again, could see nothing wrong, after about 4th attempt to see if it would start it fired right up, started hours later to go home, drove with no problems.
any ideas whats going on.
2003 4.2 v6 xl
Thx
