Getting up to speed is best described "jerky"?

The more you gas it the more it is felt.

Been like this for about a week now. I added some "Heet" fuel treatment to a tank full as soon as I felt it thinking picked up bad gas from nice Chevron, I have used for years. (Yes can happen anywhere).
It is subtle enough that wife thought it went away as it is her truck, but no still there.
Really don't know how long, as I don't drive it very often.

I did put transmission in manual mode to leave it in gear to see if it would stop, but just the same.

2024 with maybe 56k miles and absolutely "O" issues.

Serviced regularly on time.
May look into changing fuel filter.

No check engine lights or anything on dash.

Are there any unusual noises to go along with this? Things like popping or snapping sounds? Jerkyness isn't necessarily the engine. Transmission, u-joints, rear end could cause it.

You should still be under powertrain warranty....5 years/60k miles.

Ok, saw that filter is in tank with pump, so a no go.
Going to scan to see if any codes but again never has had any lights like check engine.

After scan, probably going to change plugs if scan doesn't show anything.

As ignition or fuel delivery feels like issue.

No noise or popping. Has been babied and never off pavement.
Wife doesn't even notice it.
And yes I negotiated a warranty for like 125 to 130k as wife averages 35k a year working 45 miles away.
