Every morning when I start the car, it cranks for a while and seems to barely catch, but once it does it runs great. After that the car starts great every time, just after it sits. Brand new battery and alternator. Any ideas?

I'd maybe check fuel pressure because the 04+ have the regulator on the pump. If that is part of the problem you'd see a drop off in fuel pressure right away after you prime it but once it's running it really doesn't matter.
And dirty throttle bodies and MAF sensors can contribute to this issues.
next time cycle the kjey on twice before turning it on and cranking so the fuel system builds pressure, the rails may be boiling empty and you crank a while while they fill. my 04 will extended crank if I don't let the pump prime for the full 2 seconds before I turn to the start position
Turned the key on and waited, and tried to start it... It was worse than ever. It almost didn't start, but when it did it was chugging and running like ****. Shut it off, tried again, and it barely even cranked, just fired right up
