I drive my truck with no problems, but if I drive it over 100 miles, it does not want to excellerate, like it does not have enough gas going to the engine, it kind of stalls. could it be the fuel pump? I took it to a shop and they can't find the problem, as they don't have the time to drive it 100 miles.

Check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel pump/fuel filter/pressure regulator-if the fuel system is okay

Check and test the TPS/MAF/MAP sensors
