Had the same "shuttering" noise/vibration with my '17 F150 with the 5.0. It also has a 6 speed trans. I drained the trans fluid, replaced with new and also added a friction additive. It helped immediately. But a year later it's back to doing it again. It hasn't gotten any worse or any better. I really could notice it when I was cruising along the interstate and would barely begin to give it gas. You could hear and feel it shutter ever so slightly.

No truck is perfect.

No this isn't something that just isn't '"perfect", something is definitely wrong.

Just checked the transmission fluid, not black but definitely not in good shape.

Guess I will be calling around to see what a transmission rebuild or torque converter swap will cost.

Shitty thing is I am in Houston for work and have to drive 5.5 hrs home next tues.
