My truck is doing the same thing, and the dealer tells me the same thing. My truck gets terrible mileage and I thinks it's all related. If someone has found a solution let us know. My solution it to return this truck, I'm in the process.

That doesn't sound exactly like a miss. Let's see. If the knock sensor detects a knock, it will retard spark but advance comes back in slow. If it got a big shot of EGR it would slow and then adjust. A fuel pump or plugged fuel filter could do it. All of these are sort of short opposite of surges. Oh speaking of that, it could be too lean which could be fuel pump or filter or O2 sensors.

Dealer says that on the test drive with computer in the truck shows no miss,as I said
it feels like your running into a mild gusty wind.They said everything is running fine.
Its not that bad but would like it fixed. Just make you think that something is going wrong.

How old is your truck? Maybe it's still breaking in. My truck felt "tight" the first 3,000 miles but now runs stunningly great. If they measured it, it's probably ok. Have patience.
