Seems to be missing

My dad has a 2000 F-150 with the 4.6L with 90,000 miles. He just had the transmission rebuilt 5,000 miles ago if that. It seems to miss between 45-55 mph when you have a little hill and give it some gas. Once its shifts out of over drive, it seems to be better. With over drive off, it does not miss as much. I know we put new plugs in it but don't remember how long ago it was. He bought the truck brand new. Any ideas?

Are we kidding here?
After the thread right below this one that addresses the issue in depth, another thread is posted about the same issue again.
Take some time to look!
Hint-----a coil!
Good luck.
