Default 2012 5.0 stutter

So I've noticed in the last couple of months a stutter between 20mph and 30mph. At first I thought it was just me being me, but the more I played with it, the more I noticed it.

During the speeds I mentioned above, holding the throttle at a consistent speed, it almost feels like when your brakes are warped, but at a more rapid pace. If I push on the gas or slow down out of these ranges, it goes away. The truck has about 10k miles on it now.

Thoughts?

Tighten air intake connections, possibly spark plugs. Do feel some are dropped in manufacture and later malf. Possibly the torque convertor.

That's an odd speed to have a vibration, could be any if these things
Unbalanced tire
Warped rotors
Lose or fouled plug
Driveshaft out of balance
Plugged fuel filter
Vacuum leak
Etc

Take it to the dealer, and get them to fix it
