What could be wrong with my car if I press the gas and it jerks or hesitate to take off

The transmission in this potential ORV offroader may have difficulty fluctuating between gears. Maybe get that checked, or try revving at neutral to around 2000-2500 rpm and take off into Drive from there, sort of like a manual clutch.
