acceleration problems

Hi, f150 4.6 crew cab,when i give some gas to accelerate(at any speed) the truck bucks or jerks as if it is running out of gas.Im guessing that the spark plugs need changed as i have around 112000 miles on the truck and plugs have never been changed.this problem stated about 1000 miles ago and is progressivly getting worse. Can anybody tell me what is possibly wrong? thanks Andy

I agree, I'd replace the plugs and the wires(or cops if you have them), my 4.6 was jerking bad a few days ago and after the plugs and wires were replaced, all was well...
