Tony found out some interesting things. I was out a month ago to replace my weak ass ground cable. But all they had for premade ones were 4 guage. But at Napa I asked (for some reason they didn't tell me) I asked for bulk wire and they have 2 or zero gauge. Much cheaper as well. So next month I am buying the wire and connectors and replacing that ground wire been meaning to. This all started due to my stereo losing power for 8 months. Was going to replace it till I found they have one these vehicles about 8 grounds. One is under driver's door between rails and the other by the left driving light.
Hope that helps. I thought my stock stereo was dead. The cd changer never worked. Once I cleaned thosr grounds I heard my stereo and the cd changer works now. Plus there were times other funky things would happen, like my locks and windows would not work, or lose power for a couple hours to my windows. Ever since no more weird electrical problems.

Yeah, before joining this forum I never realized how important grounds are to a vehicle. I did the grounds on the lower front driver side, it's an easy one.
Oh no you didn’t....

Went to my mother's for Christmas today and took the Hoe. She lives on a really quiet street--and it is loud. We were talking and she said she heard what sounded like a miss--kind of--as I was driving down the street. I was going less then 10 miles an hr. I knew I was hearing what sounded like popping from the exhaust when I drive--I can also feel it in the truck. I knew I wasn't imagining it, since my mother confirmed hearing it too.
Funny--when in park I can rev the hell out of it and it sounds fine, only happens when I'm driving. Doesn't matter if I'm on the highway or local streets, same thing.

I used to have a 02 F150 with the 5.4 and it would do something similar to what you're describing. It ended up being a weak coil. I know our LS engines don't typically have coil issues, but maybe you have a weak one that isn't bad enough to set any codes yet.
