SOURCE: losing power and died. im thinking fuel pump.
when you first cycle the key on (without starting the vehicle) the fuel pump turns on for about 3 seconds. You can usually hear a buzzing noise coming from the fuel tank area, sometimes you need to be right next to the fuel tank to hear it because it's quiet.
Also, if your vehicle starts, that means the fuel pump is working. It could however fail during driving; if (for example) your fuel pump does not have sufficient volume output to run your vehicle at a higher RPM.
There could simply be a clog, or restriction somewhere in the system (most likely fuel filter) If you have not changed fuel filter recently (or within about 7000 miles) you should do so, they are pretty cheap (compared to a few hundred for a pump)
Also, keep in mind there are several other things that could happen to cause the exact same thing. So don't buy a fuel pump until you are sure.

Shouldn't cost much for 10 minutes work to test fuel pressure & confirm pump condition, but do it when vehicle 's been running for a while, long enough for pump to get heated up.

Have the same year/engine truck and had same problem. Dealer fixed with an accelerator pedal position sensor. I think the part was about $300 and labor about $200...was warranty about 4 yrs ago, so not positive on prices. Also had no warning lights/no codes.
