Tundra misfire?

Tundra misfire?
I'm back to Yotatech with my 2nd yota. A 2000 TRD tundra with 122k. Truck is great!
Heres the question, After running on the highway for 30 miles or so I get a shudder that feels like a misfire only when I'm sitting at a stop light.
What should I check?
I'm tempted to start replacing some sh$t like wires and plugs but I'd like to be a little more intentional.

Check hoses and intake for a vacuum leak. Clean MAF and IAC. Air filter clean?

When were the plugs and wires last changed?

I would start at plugs. I'm doing my 5.7 plugs tomorrow at 60k on the motor, the iridiums are "100k mile plugs" but from reading around, they "frequently fail after 50-60k".
for vac pressure, a simple vacuum gauge set will work; they usually come with plenty of fittings. I would bet plugs are at least part of the problem if not all, especially since you can assume that plugs may never have been changed.
