2001 regal has a hesitation (no power)

I have a 2001 Regal with a 3800 engine with 65,000 miles that has a hesitation when I accelerate. Getting onto a expressway is hard because I have no power.
I was driving with the cruise control on and all of a suddend I could hear the engine spinning.

Any body have a idea what this could be?

When was your last basic tune up?

I never had one. Do you think I should? What would this include?

Air Filter, fuel filter, spark plugs and possibly new ignition wires.
