First - Welcome to 'Mud.

Second - I'd suggest you copy and paste the issue here - IMO, it's bad form to ask us to go to another forum to read up on your problem.

That said, I'd wager it's a bad alternator...

If I recall the "christmas tree dash" / all lights on the dash illuminated is alternator/battery related.

If you found the truck with a dead battery, that points to the same issue. Stumbling off idle would indicate not enough voltage to power the coils, possibly.

While it's running, can you check the voltage and let us know what it's reading? Should be +13v, more like 13.5-13.7v.

Will do sorry on mobile and at work it’s hectic! I took t back to the lot and they said they changed the MAF sensor and a battery cable and said it’s running fine again. Let’s see if it actually is this time...

Running good so far no more issues yet. Voltage showed 13.2
