I have had the same problem. Mine is a 2000, 4.7 V8 with 110K. Yesterday morning the battery was dead for no apparent reason - jumpstarted it - idled and drove fine until I stopped to make a turn and the engine died. It restarted fine, and runs, but won't idle on it's own.
Today the battery was dead again and wouldn't take a charge. It was VERY old, so we replaced it. This did not solve the idling problem...
My fuel filter is only 4 months old, I don't think that is the problem. Would an O2 sensor cause this?
Already scheduled for some maintenence on Wed. I'll let you know what they tell me about this Luke.
Any other ideas or explanations would be appreciated before then.
thanks.

my guess is that it is the idle air control, I read sometimes they stick. let me know after you're maintence check. Thanks.

Are you sure they're truly "rust", or are they maybe "environmental" or "rail dust" deposits? If they're rust, the spot typically has a tiny center "pimple" with a dark brown ring that develops around it. Environment deposits are just like a hard little speck of medium brown sand grain, no ring or "halo" around them. Another check, with the truck washed, run your hand over the vertical part of the bumper and then the painted tailgate surface near the bottom. Do they feel about the same? Then it's probably environmental deposits.
