Bang!!

Driving home the other day and for the second time, in about 6 months, the engine feels as though is completely cuts off, for less than a second and bang, kicks back in and drives normally. Shakes the truck like you hit something. Only lasts for less than a second and does not repeat it self on any regular basis. It is like a miss, but sounds like the truck is shut off completely and then fires again. What gives?

Sounds like the CPS going out - they can be intermittent and not totally fail! Do a search for CPS and you'll likely get a days worth of reading on the subject!!

Go get a new camshaft position sensor so you'll have it ready when it quits completely.

Same here. Everyone here who has learned anything about that CPS carries a spare and the tools to change it out.
