is it a new engine or remaufactured?

Or is it just new to your truck?

a clogged or restricted radiator could cause this symptom, as could low coolant level or a seeping head gasket.

The seeping head gasket may not cause coolant loss but may allow combustion gases into the coolant and reduce cooling system efficiency.

You should really have a higher pressure cap on it. 9 psi may allow the coolant to boil at too low of a temperature.

usually bad fan clutches cause overheating at lower speeds and in stop and go situations.
