Talking Transmission 44RE for Durango

I have a 2000 Dodge Durango transmission 44RE.

Sorry I posted a new thread, but I am a girly girl and don't understand car/truck speak.

I am going to start by saying I have taken my dodge to two mechanics, (including the dealer) paid for two diagnostics, and they both said "we can't find anything wrong."

Here is what I know. It is an automatic transmission (Maybe the 44RE tells you that so sorry if I am repeating) From 0-30 the transmission shifts fine, but after that, the engine revs (doesn't go past 1.5 to 2 rpm's) but the engine is not getting any power. It is revving up, but the truck wont go like it normally does. This literally just started last week. I took it to a mechanic as soon as it started.

Can some one PLEASE tell me what to tell the next mechanic to look for.

Thank you, for helping a girl that doesn't speak car/truck.

having which transmission is in the truck is great, the fact that it is a 44re also tells us that you have the 5.2l V8.

i assume that as it revs up it doesnt shift either, i would take a look at the transmission output speed sensor being bad, and possibly needing a band adjustment and fluild filter change (DO NOT LET THEM FLUSH THE TRANS!!!!!!!!!!!!)
