Foxx is on a distinguished road
major problem, drive shaft I think...

I think I have a big problem, it happened while I was arriving at the family Thanksgiving dinner, now I'm stuck in Temecula, CA, hoping I can find a shop out here that's opened and can help me.
My car suddenly started vibrating like crazy at high RPMs on the FWY, when I got off the FWY ans started using 2nd and 3rd gears it was getting worst with each mile. After a while it was vibrating even more at lower RPMs as well.
It feels like driving on huge bricks, the noise and feel is as if I were on those bumps that are on the side of the road warning you are outside of your lane, but extra large. I think it may be the drive shift, could it be? Drive shaft center bearing? Any thoughts?

I'm afraid to drive back to L.A., I need to find a shop in Temecula, any members in this area that could point me to the right place?
Thanks all.
