99 Taurus vibration

Can you all stand a question about a Taurus? There is a vibration, consistent with road speed. When you first start off, it is'nt there, but when you get abouv about 15, it starts to vibrate. It kind of feels like a worn bushing in the output shaft.. maybe. Any ideas?

Could be a tire out of balance or a CV shaft. Any popping or crackling noises from the front end?

Nope, at slow speeds, everything is very smooth, it acts like a brand new car, even though it does have pretty high miles. I guess i will have to crawl under it and actually look.

Thanks!

The first place I would look is the axle shafts and make sure the boots are not ripped. While you have the car up, make sure the tires do not have an impact bruise, usually the curb side tires from potholes.
