2008 f150 v8 5.4 liter Truck seems to skip or pull real hard when going between 40 and 50 mph...if I speed up it stops. If I turn overdrive off, it stops. No real hardcore maitenence done yet, just turned 100,000 on her. Plan on changing plugs this weekend. Any ideas? What else HAS to be done at 100,000? Money is tight

skip or pull? are you referring to a misfire or transmission issue bro? i have same year/engine and 94K miles so pretty much same truck i havent had any issues other than some weird shifting when creeping along very slow in town.

 

Not sure if it is tranny or not, just feels like all of the sudden there is no fuel getting to engine...like someone is pulling my truvk from behind, then it goes away

 

get the plugs changed and then see if the problem goes away...
