Hey guys. I have a manual 2003 supercharged model. I have owned this truck between three and four years now, bought it with about 5,000 miles on it, and I am currently approaching 36,000 miles. Since day one, it has ran beautifully, and I have had no complaints. I do any and all regular maintenance, and I have done so at the appropriate intervals.
My first and current problem with this truck started about 2 weeks ago and has progressively become worse.  Once my truck has warmed up and been running (driving around town) for about 15 to 20 minutes, I begin to lose what I know as torque. It gradually takes longer and longer to accelerate and make it through the gears. It eventually gets to a point where I can floor my pedal and barely be accelerating, when I should be winding through gears with a quickness! It runs completely normal first thing in the morning when it's still dark and the engine is cool, but as the day or drive goes on, the problem gets worse, though I feel it necessary to point out that the problem is not consistent. I can experience this problem for several minutes, only to have a short period of time when it is again non-existent. This is very frustrating and I have no idea where to begin, where to look, or what to do in general. 
If any of you have any insight into this issue, I would greatly appreciate any advice. Let me know if there is any additional information that may help diagnose the problem. Thanks in advance!!!

Sounds like a fuel delivery problem. Check any fuel filters (replace if possible) and make sure the fuel pump is operating properly.
