Possible misfire on hard acceleration ?

I have a 2006 supercrew 5.4L 2wd with 80,000miles. I have had no problem with the truck except for now under hard acceleration it seems to stumble.
I have changes the fuel filter (factory motocraft) after it started but the problem was still there. I dont get a check engine light or anything. Could it be the plugs (never been changed) or the coils ? I thought I would get a check engine light if I had a misfire? I have not hooked a code reader to it yet due to the one I have is to old for this truck.

I appreciate any help before I take it to the dealer. Also I am a equipment mechanic so I can work on it myself but have never had to up until now.

check it for codes, clean your MAF, air filter and plan on changing plugs and maybe the cops
