Chevy Shake has Competition

Why is the steering wheel off center on the ford?

There is something else that happened to that ford. The steering wheel is crooked from an accident or something . I have been driving around a 2017 Expedition EL rental loaded with the 3.5 ecoboost for 2 weeks and it drives fine.

I read the title to this thread and thought it was about people with the chevy shake having a competition to see whose truck shakes the worst right off the dealer lot!  That would be something I would pay to see.

I've been lucky twice now. My '15 4.3 (z71 4x4) and my current '17 5.3 (z71 4x4) have had ZERO issues with vibration.

 

That video of the F-350 is ridiculous, but not surprising. One of the bands I play in owns an E-150 that has a similar 'death shake' around 65mph too...

Death wobble is way more common than Chevy shake. The new SFA heavy duty trucks seem to do it even more often than the old ones. Part of the problem is the newer/cheaper ball joint setup and the softer suspension tuning they're using on SFA trucks these days. Even newer F-150's have vibration issues. Mostly at 45-55 MPH and at 70 MPH.
