Transmission HELP!

Bought a 2000 Ford F250 2WD with a 5.4 liter engine, with an auto transmission. So here is my issue, I let the engine get to operating temperature then shift it into drive but it barely moves forward. But if I shift it all the way down to 1st it moves forward. Reverse works well too. Checked the oil and it is right on the mark of full. Would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Wondering if you ever solved the problem? I am having a similar issue and am looking for any insight before I start taking things apart.

I have a 1995 f-150 with a 1994 4r70w used transmission . when driving after the truck warms up the transmission slips out of foward then will go back in . I changed the filter & blew out the cooler good . put in fresh oil & 1 can of transmission helper. I don't know the mileage of the tranny .

What kind of "oil" did you put in it? How much did you put in it?
