That'll do it! The V10 is a BIG motor that needs to work to fully warm up. Try getting on it a couple times a month. The extra fuel for a couple extra (hard) Sunday drives will reduce headaches like your coil problems, and will clear the carbon out of the intake, and cook the moisture out of the engine and transmission oils.
Without getting the engine HOT, condensation builds up in the spark plug wells causing a short which damages the coils.
And here's what I noticed.... It doesn't matter if a drive like a grandma, or I drive like I just robbed a bank. Gas mileage is just as bad either way;)
