hemi ram doesn't go/sometimes dies

I have an 05 Ram with a Hemi and it does not go when first put into drive. It takes several seconds then slowly begins to go. After it has warmend up it works fine.

Also this truck will lunge then die from time to time. For example i can back out of my drive and when i go from reverse to drive it will occasionally die in the middle of the street. I have taken it to my dealership NUMEROUS times and they say that nothing is wrong with it. It has had both of these problems since new. Has anyone else experienced these problems? Please help!

How many miles? Do you tow or haul with it? Beat on it any?

Yes, i had a 06 town and country 3.3 v6, did the same things. also when really cold in winter, it wouldnt start, youd have to floor the pedal then itd start but you let off the gas itd die again kept doing it till it warmed up. was intermitant, same deal, dealer checked it a few times, no probs, I thought it was a fuel delivery prob, can you hear the pump whine sometimes, while it runs? Mine did that, requested they change the pump said they couldnt since it didnt prove bad, when they checked it. after two years of it i traded it in, was still doing it when I let it go. dont have a solution for you other then, get rid of it, before it costs you major money.

It has 43K miles now but has done it since it was new. The not going until warmed up is a constant. The dieing is probably every 20-30th time I start it. I do tow a boat with it fairly often but that is a fairly small load for this truck. I drive it moderately hard but in no way abuse it

Thanks
