Probably more the BCM in the truck being weird than the keyfob. Let the truck sit for a few hours with the key out of range and try again

Did you recently swap to LED bulbs, or get a new garage door opener with LED lights? Both of these are known to cause problems with fob functionality.

Didn’t see your reply earlier for some reason. I’ll check again in the morning but as of resting for 15 hrs no change.

I hope it's warranted. They are big bucks!
I bought a $40 one of Amazon and had it programmed to my truck so I could have remote tailgate release button
