Sounds like your transmission shot.... I had my tranmission flused few months later all the light in my dash board came on...car lost power...I pull over to the side of the raod..the car started up fine and reved up fine...but the car would not move.

If you get your transmission fixed...you better get the transmission fuild from the dealership only. Advance Auto, O Relily fluids will not work.... I found out the hard way..

I was driving down the interstate at 80 in my 2002 Monte Carlo when the rpms drop and I lose acceleration. The gas pedal got really lose as well. It's not starting either.

Sounds like your throttle cable has came off or broken. Have someone sit in the drivers seat and press the accelerator repeatedly (with engine off) while you look in the engine compartment for movement. if nothing moves your cable is broken and you will need a new one. as for not starting, the cable could be binding the throttle body, but that's only if the engine cranks over. if the engine wont even turn over, you may have a bad alternator. Worst case scenario though is that you have broken your timing belt and basically scrapped the motor. I would highly recommend a tow to a mechanic. Hope this helps

2007 ford fusion starts to bogg down around 40 mph with heavier acceleration. No issues from take off and rides smooth otherwise

If the check engine light is not on, it could be low fuel pressure and/or a dirty fuel filter.
On this model the fuel filter is in the gas tank.

Cold outside, on interstate my Intrigue started acting sluggish. couldn't get to 70mph. was only going 50mph. Service engine soon light was flashing and kept flashing the whole rest of the drive even...

sounds like you have moisture in the gas tank. there's plenty on the market that will take moisture out of gas tanks. Home Depot, Menards, etc.
