I have a '99 Dodge Dakota that I bought about a month ago and since I have had the truck it hasn't started properly. Im the mornings it cranks like 5 or 6 or 7 times before it starts. If a park at like a gas station to put gas in it, it starts right up after like 1 crank. If I'm at school, leaving it sit there for several hours, it takes 5 or 6 or 7 cranks to start.

When I first got it I changed the spark plugs, oil, filter, and air filter. I also changed an oxygen sensor because the engine light came on then it went away. I don't know why it does this. If anyone had some kind of simple reason as to why I would be appreciative.
it's a 3.9 v6 magnum
 
fuel filter and check hoses on fuel line - fuel pump @ 80,000 miles - but the state you live in could be a factor - cold is cold oil is oil it could be just that
