One thing to watch for in the automatics is a lag in throttle response that lasts for a second or two and then is replaced with a very jerky acceleration. Some Toyotas from the mid 2000's suffered from this throttle lag, there was even a TSB out to fix it. The TSB reprogrammed the ECU to improve ''shift quality''. Sounds like you are simply describing less power than you expected but I wanted to point this out to others.
