Why the fast idle at start-up?

    Love my new truck but at every single start the engine begins with a fast idle (~ 1500 RPM) until it settles down under 1K RPM. Is this normal?

    Yes its normal. I think its to get oil pressure up and get everything going but i could be wrong.

    during cold start the engine needs more fuel,so a higher engine idle is needed to idle correctly during a rich condition
