Just ran a test on it. Not throwing any codes.
Let it run until the sound started and popped hood, while running. Fan is running very hard and loud, I believe that is the issue. Turned A/C off and fan shut off about 3 minutes later. Turned A/C back on and drove some, fan acted normal. My A/C and heater are working fine. Truck not overheating, running well. May be a sensor or low coolant??

I'm sure it has all the bells and whistles of most modern vehicles, but with the reliability of a domestic vehicle.
That's the problem.
That's the problem.

I’ve never heard of a fan running so hard that it makes the truck shake enough to make the driver think there’s a problem.

American pickups - all brands - have above avg reliability and longevity.

Lower than nearly all foreign trucks (save Nissan).
Domestic trucks are more reliable than domestic cars, but that's not saying much.

If it’s vibrating while sitting still - and no engine lights are on - it may well be an engine mount.
If a light comes on, I’m betting it’s a bad coil pack.
Bad coil pack spent wont make it vibrate while sitting still in my experience. Likely the engine mount.

It 100% has something to do with the A/C. When it starts “vibrating” while driving if you turn the AC off it stops vibrating. Idk what it could be

I currently drive a ‘19 Tacoma 4x4, so I obviously like foreign.
However, I also own an ‘89 Silverado 4x4 that I would drive anywhere, I’ve owned 3 F150s that were great trucks, I owned a 89 Nissan hardbody that I put nearly 300k on, and I even owned a ‘04 Ram that was very reliable.
No company makes a pos truck.

Probably bad plugs or coil packs

Miles when the spark plug were replaced if ever?

Not sure if it relates to your trouble, but give it a look: Youtube

Just thought about checking the coolant. Its extremely low. That may be my problem and causing the fan to go into high mode

This is what I was going to say...
Probably a vacuum leak...
