Default running ruff at steady speed

when driving my 07 ram 1500 5.7 hemi , at a steady speed the truck runs ruff like my cats are clogged. but then when i give it a little more gas it runs fine untill i go at a steady speed again. could it be the packing in the cats breaking apart and just rattling around inside the cats. or what could be the cause of this.

You need a programmer or a local tune.
