Hopefully it was a fluke. If it felt like when you are lugging the engine in a manual then maybe it was misfiring for some reason? Did you happen to catch a peek at the tach and see how fast the engine was turning?

In my last car I was on the highway when it started misfiring and losing power around 25k miles. I stomped on the gas and the engine revved up and the car just maintained speed. I started to pull over and it cleared up, so I kept driving. I traded the car in at 40k miles and it had only happened that one time.
