This may sound crazy but check your tires! I recently bought a 4.8is privately, sight unseen except for pictures. Had it shipped from TN. When I drove it it was all over the road, shaking & vibrating like crazy, sounded like the front wheel bearings were cooked. I thought I bought a heap. I replaced the front tires and it drives like a new car. The belts were seperated and humped in both front tires. Just run your hand over the tires all the way around. If the belts are seperated you will feel it.

WTF, did anyone else understand the above two posts, or am I too drunk? If it's funny I would like a translation. Thanks.
