Bucking/Loss of Power

OK now onto another question. What would cause 'bucking' while driving at
highways speeds? The truck acted today(and other times as well) like it
wanted to stall/die two times, because it briefly lost power, but never
died. Almost like a backfire jerking situation, without the backfiring
noise. Would a failing ignition coil cause any of this? How about a failing
battery? I am going to test the battery tomorrow and see what I find out. I
really have no clue what else to look for or do. No fault codes are stored
also. Hopefully by mid week I will have my hands on a Auto Xray scanner to
tell me more. I can only hope the scanner finds something, or off the
mechanic to truck goes.
