Default Strange change on startups

Since a few days, my truck takes a little longer to start.

It doesn't happen every time I start it, but Id say 1 out of 3 times. It used to start say between the 2nd and the 3rd engine turn. Now it starts after the 3rd and it sometimes take 4 revolutions to start.

I have been reading and found that it could be a sign that the lift pump is giving up??

Truck is 2 years old, 65k miles on it.

ANY HELP will be appreciated!!

Id change your fuel filter first before ruling in your lift pump unless you have a fuel pressure gauge to see your lift pumps output.
