I just purchased my 04 f150 fx4 last week. It has roughly 400 miles on it. I recently noticed that when I shift into reverse and begin to back up I here a pretty nasty vibration or grinding noise. Not to mention the transmission seeems to shift a bit hard. Anybody experience this?
Also I feel a really bad vibration in my brake pedal whenever the windshield wipers are working. Anybody else? I know this is kink of petty, but it is a brand new truck.

Beef,.... I have both of those issues with mine... Mine is a regular car XLT, 3.55 LS.
When I put it in revers to back out of the driveway, I get a kind of "klunk" sound. Its not bad, but I dont think this its normal. My windsheild wipers do vibrate the entire truck when they are full blast, or one notch below full blast.
