2003 Ford Escape Truck is misfiring/trembling

Engine Performance problem
2003 Ford Escape 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic 125000 miles

I was driving home through a nasty rain storm and drove across a flooded street. The water didn't pass the tires so I pressed through the water. After I made it through my truck began trembling when idling and sort of feels real heavy. What's the damage?
