I'm thinking it would be too small to notice but you never know...

I have a 2011 FX4 5.0 40K mi. which shudders or misfires from 55-60 more often on slight incline or under light acceleration. It has been to the dealership twice in 3 weeks for this issure. My dealer flashed to the newest programming and also cleared mode 6 and it still does it. I am still working with them on the issue but feel as if i am just being told to deal with it. Has anyone else had success changing the plugs? I am quickly running out of options. Any help would be great!

Here's my problem (aside from my truck running like complete crap at $550 a month).
I have been to 2 different dealerships. Once even after the Ford reps here on our forum helped set up the second diagnosis.
I tried and tried to explain to them that on our forum, we have seen the shutter problem fixed by replacing the plugs with ones that are gapped properly. Both dealerships refuse to even check the plugs because the CEL isn't on, even after the Brighton dealership master tech said he definitely noticed a problem. They call Ford. They say leave it alone.
Crystal, if you think you can convince them to pull the plugs than we might be on to something. I would try a third time, but until then...
Im sick of this. I have never been more pissed off at any corporation - and I am/was a FORD lifer. But not after this.
They don't really think they give a flying flip about looking at fixing the problem.
I could go in screaming "PULL THE DAMN PLUGS AND CHECK EACH ONE" and they would tell me that they would have to charge me for that.
Sorry gang.
