Proud of anyone who has the courage to go to Iraq. NO KIDDING! Serious, you got courage. Get an OBD II and plug it in and get the code. On the other hand it could be the truck is depressed and misses you.......

maybe code P0753. Trans 3-4 Shift Sol/Trans Relay Circuits - An open or shorted condition detected in the overdrive solenoid control circuit or Trans Relay Circuit.
My truck has this code and sometimes it goes into limp mode. I will be ordering a new overdrive/TCC selonoid soon. heres a good write up http://forum.mopar1973man.com/showth...roubleshooting

Than again it could just be the relay,fuse, or wiring.
