Default 4.6L spark plug replacement..do I have the problem plugs?

I have a 2010 F150 4.6L 3valve vin 8. Do I have the 2 piece plugs that break? I looked up spark plugs for it and it doesnt show the 2 piece plugs, but I dont know if the factory ones are 2 piece. I'm thinking of changing because I have a hesitation when I go to take off from a stop. Any idea what could be causing this too? Thanks so much for the help. I have 90k miles on the truck and it has been a dream....0 problems so far until now.

No. the 2007+ 4.6L did not have the 2 piece plugs that is why they don't have all the problems

No 4.6 had a 2-piece plug, old or new, just the 04-08 5.4 3-v.
