Default SPARK PLUGS!!! which ones?

Ok, the other day i went up to autozone to get a price on some spark plugs, and this is what i came up with: for Standard Autolite plugs- $1.97, for Autolite Platinum plugs- $2.41, and for Autolite Double Platinum- $3.57... I just wanted to know if it made enough of a difference between the platinum plugs and the double platinum plugs to consider buying them... let me know what you guys think because i want to get the best for my money... thanks

Autolite 25's. That is the best plug for the 5.0 which is mostly stock. Don't waste your money on the platinums

i had a friend get his car dynoed and they asked him what kinda plugs he had and they told him to change them after he said he had platinum. they said they're aren't for performance but like fuel economy or soemthing
