    Hey Jesse have you got a new horse ? I've been out of the mix for a while since you were getting ready for a buy back on a trade in .Did you end up staying with GM ? Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

    I agree the Tundra is a great truck I'm very very happy with my Ram though with 10000 miles and not one issue or even a rattle . My shake-a Rado started rattling with about 600 miles I'm guessing because of the vibrations and shaking . I must admit the Chevy is still the sexiest and best looking truck on the market to date but that's were it stops . I don't care how good it looks that truck gave me daily headaches.

    I got news for the non believers this thread is the real deal and I know From being a previous Viberado owner . With any forum your going to get false information or pots stirred and that's just nature of the beast . My heart sincerely goes out to those who are experiencing these issues and wishing them a cure to these problems with there GM truck . I was fortunate to were I just owned a base model work truck so I was able to get out of it without as much financial hardship as those that have 50,000 dollar trucks and are locked in or seeking help from the lemon laws.There going to be those that there defense mechanism kicks in because they cant afford to get out of there truck so they put blinders on to not see the issue or feel it I should say . I would bet over 80% or higher is the percentage of folks having vibrating/harmonic issues . But believe it or not the 20% that aren't and saying they are, actually are helping the cause to fix it and let it be known so we should thank those to [emoji6] Sent from my iPhone 6 using Tapatalk

    That's a tuff one , I think I'd go SLT just incase you run into any issues . That way if the unspeakable happens you won't be loosing as much . Don't think I'd be able to step up that much after my Experience to take that big of a gamble rolling the dice . I've lost all my trust and loyalty to GM unfortunately . Second thought more like Fortunately [emoji12] Sent from my iPhone 6 using Tapatalk

    I say go for it Jesse and go for the buy back , even though it hurts me deeply to say that . But I would definitely test drive a few to see if there shaker/vibrators .if any vibrate I'd pass and go to the lemon law . You've got them offering a buy back now so you've got that on the bargaining table as far as there admitting the issue . Good luck man and keep us posted. With that being said I couldn't be happier since I traded mine in . It was like a breath of fresh air and enjoying my new Ram for about year now that seems to just keep getting better . No rattles no nothing and that hemi is impressive as hell . Love it love it love it !!

    Wow !!!! I'm speechless and that says a lot lol.

    I thought the same thing when I first bought mine ,Unfortunately they all don't do it from the beginning and develope the vibration later . Mine didn't start doing it for a few months,others longer . Mine also started getting worse as time went on .

    Yeah I'm with you but with that being said I'm beyond happy with my Ram . What a great truck it's so much fun and enjoyable to drive I look forward to driving it every chance I get . The complete opposite experience I had with my Silverado. Every time I drove it I seemed to have a form of road rage even if there was no one on the road lol because the truck made me so mad and GM .

    The Tundra is a great Truck and I think you made a great choice to . I've had almost every truck over the years and have learned they all have some skeletons in there closet . The objective I've also learned with wisdom is to try and pick the one with the least scariest ones and unfortunately GM has one in the closet the size of King Kong with 10"fangs and they can't tame the beast lol .It's a shame because other then that lol it to this day is the sexiest truck on the market in my honest opinion "Looks Wise"

    Is the sign vibrating to make new owners feel at home ?
  16. TheFactor
    Mine did it exactly from 20 to 30 mph . Wouldn't do it before 20 or after 30 . Before I got rid of it I was starting to feel it on the freeway periodicaly " the harmonic sound and vibration"It had about 6000 vibrating miles when I got rid of it .

    Congrats !!!!!Isn't it a great feeling it's like heaven

    I got lucky and got rid of my Viberado after only the hair on my chin turned grey .It was just starting to get my mustache

    I think on one of there commercials they refer to this feature as perfection .

    LoL well it's like I told my X you can't put a price on happiness Trading in my X and my Viberado was probably 2 of the best decisions I ever made . I actually got a great deal on my Ram didn't even feel the hit on the trade . I feel for you guys that are still in the process of trying to get rid of there GM truck because most other dealers/manufactures know about the vibrating issue that 2014 and up GM trucks have and there going to make you pay dearly the longer you wait because are going to be aware. It's pretty sad GM won't recognize the issue but other manufactures /dealers are sure aware of it . Very very sad for all the loyal GM truck owners !!!!

    Congrats ! I think your going to love it as I'm loving mine I also traded my 14 Viberado in for 15 Ram 4x4 Hemi .Absolutely love this truck and I keep loving it more everyday unlike with my GM it got to the point I Hated driving it and was frustrated every time I drove it . It's a shame because it was a beautiful truck but that vibration killed it . This Ram is like riding on glass and this Hemi is impressive on power and mpg . I'm actually getting just under 20mpg in town but I did put a Magnalow exhaust on it . Anyway congrats again and don't worry your going to love it ! It's like coming out of a abusive relationship and your guard is high so just relax and enjoy it . I remember when I first got my Ram I was on vibration alert after being tormented for a year in my Silverado . This Ram is like a breath of fresh air and look forward to driving it everyday !

    That's s very good question but I wouldn't be surprised if they all had it just some worse then others.
  23. TheFactor
    Mine vibrated with stock 18's and really don't think tires and rims are the problem they probably just contribute to the issue like the long list of other things . Hate to say it but I think it's the chassis and suspension design .Just my opinion and observation . All the attempted fixes are just a bandaid to the problem it appears .
  24. TheFactor
    Mine did it exactly between 20 and 30 mph it was like driving on a rumble strip that you could hear and feel . Seemed To be getting worse to and didn't notice it when I bought it . Dealer said it felt like every other truck on there lot and there was nothing they could do basically . Will never own another GM product especially a truck and I've owned many over years . The Silerado was the best looking truck out there but the vibration is unacceptable for me and did nothing but aggravate me every time I drove know matter how hard I tried to ignore it or change my driving habits like breaking late at lights to stay out of the vibration zone 20 to 30 MPH . This thing felt like a tuning fork with wheels lol . Traded it in with less then 6000 miles and took my losses and never looked back . Bought a Ram 1500 and have had for 3 months and 3000 vibration free miles Love this truck and the best decision I ever made .I actually look forward to driving this truck every chance I get . Rumor has it from what I've read the vibration is from the chassis and suspension being so rigid/stiff so that's why it appears so many different folks have different issues causing vibration .

    Glad to hear some of you are getting taken care of one way or another . I don't think they need another test truck when all they need is a tuning fork with wheels , would be a better comparison .
