My 6.0 skips like a gas motor with a bad spark plug when cruising, not at full acceleration and not when decelerating, or at idle unless it is in gear. Can anyone help?

Most diesel problems are preventive maintenance-related. See if the diesel troubleshooting link below helps:

I'm inclined to suspect an injector.
