Hi all, I'm not sure I have a problem, yet. I have almost 2,000 miles on the truck. Yesterday, I was moving my truck from dropping my jet ski for service to the front of the dealer lot. I was trying to accelerate and the truck was slowing down. I looked at the dash and the triangle warning light was flashing. I pulled into a parking spot, cut off the engine and waited a couple of minutes. It started right up. I drove home. No problems. Today it started kinda rough but again, ran with no problems. Anyone have an idea.

It maybe caused by a surge in electrical system when you disconnected the trailer's electrical connection. There was one poster that had similar experience when he connected his trailer's electrical system to the truck. After re- start, the truck was back to normal. I 'm wondering if an error code was saved by the computer so the dealership can find out exactly the problem.
I had not hooked up the trailer to the plug. Its not far from the house and the trailer has issues with wiring. I really don't trust the dealer I bought my Tundra from, probably need to check another dealer.
Dude, it's a Toyota. You can take it to ANY dealer to have them look at it. If you don't trust yours, you will be kicking yourself in the butt later if you take it there and the problem isn't resolved quickly. Like Art64 said, take it to the dealer. They have the correct equipment to figure it out.

Ya. Get it checked out by another dealer and see if any error codes have been saved.
Sounds to me like your traction control came on as you were pulling out of the boat launch or pulling away from the drop area. TRAC will cut power to the spinning tires and slow the truck down to gain traction, when it does this a light will flash until it stops on the dash. It is completely normal, read your owners manual.
