Did it do this when you bought her? Is it the same gas that was in it when you bought her?Pour a bottle of Seafoam into the tank and fill her up. Run it through and see if it helps. That and the previously mentioned suggestions should help you find a solution. If not, get it to the dealership and have it serviced so you know where you stand with suggested maintenance - especially your 60,000 major which should have been done.

no...

as an aside, check the air intake for debris (maybe something got sucked in there and is blocking the flow through the filter. pull the filter and make sure it's not one of those "oil" types and replace/clean it. as harry said - start with the simpler things.
