This is what makes me suspect a transmission problem: it ONLY shakes at about 70mph, in overdrive. If I let it run at 60-65 it will NOT shake. I can get it to shift into third at 25 and not shift out, back to second. It does NOT shake, vibrate, or anything. Just pulls itself right along and picks up speed like a champ. I have serviced the transmission, at about 80,000 miles. When it does smooth out and quit shaking on flat ground or slight down grades, I can feel a "pulsing". I just changed the muffler and gutted out the cat, but even before that I noticed my fuel economy really falling off. Yesterday, I couldn't even drive for two hours without burning all of 17 gallons of fuel, where it used to go five hours on 10 gallons. This is all highway driving. This is why I suspect a transmission problem. Does that make sense?
