Default Coil packs

I have an 08 5.4 SCREW is there any reason to replace all 8 coils? I've replaced 2 that had gone bad but is there any reason to replace all 6 due to mileage? Truck runs well just idles a little bit rough

Driving around running errands my truck started missing like crazy, pulled engine coded off my evolution and said it was my number 5 coil. Wasn't around any dealerships but pulled over and ran into a advance auto and picked up a accel replacement for $45. Very well made and popped it in in the parking lot and haven't had any issues yet. If you can't afford the motorcrafts then I would recommend the accel.

Im looking at Duralast from Autozone. A buddy just bought eight for $300 and they have a lifetime warranty. I cant find motorcraft for under $350 and they only have a 1yr warranty. Those duralast seemed nice when I installed them for him. And Autozone is good about honoring warranties.

So if I'm at 100k my truck will really run better with a new set of coils? It's not missing or anything

I'd say so, gonna need them soon enough, I did at 118k, I bought the acells off amazon for $200, and use some dielectric grease to put them on
