Description of the problem	I have owned my 2004 f-150 supercab 4x4 lariat for approximately 5 weeks. The vehicle had a very bad shake in the rear end at approximately 59 miles an hour. Dealer installed a "dampner", which was supposed to correct the problem. Installation of the dampner only relocated the vibration to 54-55 miles an hour. At times, the vibration is so bad, i must slow down or speed up so i can see out of the rear view mirror. The dealership and the ford regional service technician have told me that the new model of f-150 has a much stiffer frame and that is the cause of the vibration. They go on to say that this ride vibration is normal throughout the entire line of the f-150s. When it rains and the vehicle is hopping up and down in the rear, i am honestly afraid that if i hydroplane the least amount, i will lose control of the truck and have an accident. I have asked repeatedly for this problem to be resolved, but they say they have done all they can and that this is the normal ride og the vehicle. I just don't believe it.*ak
