Plugs can be a PITA. Well, the ones in the back anyway.

There are no wires to change. If you head down to the V10 forum you'll find threads on tips and methods for the plug change and other "tune-up" stuff like MAF cleaning.

How many miles are on your truck and are there any problems or is this just preventative maintenance?

Yes I think I have a Problem. My truck run fine a lower speeds but I have notice that when I get on e-way the truck is very hard to pick up speed starting at like 50 mph i have to give her a lot of gas for the speed to move up. Im cleaning my my maf now and added fuel system cleaner. Im wishing that this works if not I will go to dealer to get truck checked
