I noticed that my 99 Taco does not immediately respond when I let off the brake. It seems to be getting worse. I checked the fluid levels and it indicate it's okay. 149K and I've owned it since 94K the gear shift has always moved when I accelerate and it seemed rough taking off.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Sounds like the transmission is slipping, bring it and have it pressure tested to find out more-probable causes here to could be a problem with the TPS and VSS sensors/to include the airflow meter
