This truck has a violent vibration bouncing osilaltion on the freeway. Other truck don't do this. The dealer says no problem with it and they wont do anything. I complained after 1 mile of ownership. The truck is not safe. No statement was given to me that I was getting a truck that can't be used to drive at normal freeway speeds. Adding 500lbs in the bed does nothing to help. Then I was told I need a camper added so I got one. It's a $2,200 mistake. Now I am told to try some rubber spring shackles called velvet rides. They seem to make it better except now when applying the brakes the whole truck unloads and the rear lifts up and looses rear traction too easy. Im taking them off im not the only one with this problem with front and rear end problem.

This vehicle has a dana 70 rear end. Manufacturer failed to shim when originally built. This caused rear end to shift and elongate mounting section thus destroying entire rear end. Manufacturer claims no liability due to passing 100,000 mile limit of warranty. My concern is that anyone pulling heavy trailers could experience a total failure of the rear end while moving. This would almost certainly cause the trailer to jacknife and could lead to injury or at least considerable damage. We haul show horses that are valued in excess of $150,000 and we just wanted to alert the NHTSA and the general public in what we see is a potentially dangerous problem. Perhaps ours is the only occurance or perhaps there are others waiting to happen.
