power surge

It seems like some times my truck kinda dogs when I shift and get on the gas a little. I can also tell when I am towing that it feels doggy to try to pass and then some times it feels like it is all there. I just had the G30 done with an oil, fueland air filter change done a month ago. I need to take it in so I can get this problem checked and something about the milage as 12-13 mpg is getting really old!!!!!!!!!!!

i too have the same problem, doesnt happen all the time, just occasionally. I drive my truck about 75 miles round trip to work and it may do it 2-4 times in that 75 miles. i have an appt with the dealership where i bought it to have a scratch on the bed repaired, while im there im going to see if they will check to see if i need any of the updates. i read somewhere that there was a new one last week, AW i think it was. maybe this would help.
