Starting Issue With My 2005

Today, a weird thing happens with my truck. I didn't like the way I parked, so I went back in to fix it (30 seconds after I turned it off). When I went to start it again, it cranked but the engine didn't turn over (all dash lights were on). On the second attempt, it kept cranking so I turned the key to off. On the third try, I held the key to start it and it finally turned over normally. Should I be concerned about anything or is it a random hiccup? Should I get my truck checked out? I have 57,000 miles and pit in a new battery last fall.

Water fjording? (I'm assuming the battery terminals are clean/good.) Starter contacts? If the starter gets wet and the contacts in the solenoid get wet/corroded it might behave like yours did. It would probably do the occasional, random thing with increasing frequency and then eventually crap out if left unattended.
:cheers:
