Rough Ride?

I have a 2005 CC longbed lariat F350. Whenever I am on the highway it rides very rough. Shakes / bounces front to rear so much that it is almost impossible to hold a conversation with someone in the vehicle. My wife will no longer ride in the truck due to the severe bounce. On very smooth roads it rides fine at any speed, but on any highway (orange county Ca) I get the terrible bounce. My truck has the camper stabilization package and the 11500# GVWR package as well. I don't know if these additions make the ride more rough or not. I am taking to dealer for a ride along this week. Any help or comments in this area are greatly appricatiated. I hope that this is not the normal ride for everyone else out there and that I am not just being some type of baby... Thanks for any input.

Look for Velvet Ride shackles......your not the only person to complain from Kali. The concrete highway makes your truck bounce.
