I have a 95 ford f-150 with a manual transmission and it jumps at about 4th gear ,at 65mph it really is jumping. it wants to jump to when going up a hill.
Sounds like clutch. The clutch is almost gone and worn unevenly, so if you baby it, it will stay engaged if you put alot of stress on it like up a hill it will slip. This symptom is the warning sign, it will get worse as to where you can't engage any gear. The more it slips the quicker it will fail.

Sounds like it has run low of transmission oil. You may be able to save it by draining the gear lube and refill with DELCO synthetic Automatic transmission fluid. Make sure level is correct. The 4th gear syncro is bad, but the Delco ATF will help.
It could be your transmission trying to find the right gear it will jump around on diffrent road surfaces and going up hills/down hills. It is usaully noticable on cruise because it is at a constant speed and your thinking why would it need to shift. Sometimes it doesnt even really shift the gear its so inbetween it just jumps back really fast.
