when I first start the truck in the morning and put the truck in drive, it barely moves forward. If i shift to neutral and rev the motor for a few seconds, it drops into gear fine. But also when accelerating to about 30 mph the truck feels as if it is dropping in and out of gear. this only lasts for a few blocks and then it is ok for the rest of the day. This problem repeats daily. Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks.

Has the check engine light come on? Also, is the fluid full and clean?
