Default Hi all, new here, I have a 2005 f150 xl 4.2 v6 and I have coil PROBLEMS please help

It is with the 4.2 v6, it is an auto trans. Im having problems with the ignition coil, it keeps going bad and I change it and than it runs great for a min. of 6 or 7000 miles and than it will have another missfire and same thing the coil again. I have changed it 4 times in 25,000 miles. here are the facts- I got the truck with 92,087 with in 300 it had a slight missfire, getting bad gas mileage so I figured with 92k mi. it was time for new plugs and wires (the originals) so i changed them, bosch plug wires and radium spark plugs that it calls for and that fixed the problem as I thaught it would and about 3 monthes later the first and original coil went bad. It does not go out completely its 1 or 2 terminals of the coil goes bad. If anyone has any idea I would apperciate it. thx kevin
