2v 5.4 shaking/not shifting

Today my 03 250 with the 5.4 auto had some problems. Pulling out of the driveway it started studdering/shaking and did that all the way down our road (quarter mile). Was fine for a while, had lunch and came back in an hour and it was fine. Going up a hill when we were almost home, the truck wouldnt shift past 1st but the rpms kept climbing. Any thoughts?

The truck was driven 200 miles then not driven for 3 days

Thanks

My guess would be bad COPs or bad spark plugs or both. Have it scanned for malfunction codes.
