I would have to say cats are clogged or torque conveter is slipping / transmission is slipping out of gear. it could even be a loose wire going to your transmission that is confusing the computer, telling it it's in gear when it's really not and vice versa

Do you always run premium in it? it will cause the cats to burn up faster.
