My vehicle gets started good and normally, then when I press the accelerator pedal it goes slow and cannot get acceleration.

Has the check engine light come on? If so, have the computer scanned to determine if there are trouble codes. Other than that, it could be several things which could cause this type of problem. Things such as a weak fuel pump, plugged catalytic converter, major engine vacuum leaks, sensor issues, or even a stuck brake. If the light is on, have it scanned and let me know what code is found.
