That is called TORQUE CONVERTER SHUDDER, More then likely the converter is heating up and getting to hot.
Is the truck under warrenty ?? I would push the dealer real hard if it is.
Sounds like they don't want to warrenty it.

Seismic shifting is the shifting of the earth's crustal plates, causing seismic activity.
Can a bad serpentine belt cause hard shifting as well?
No, the only way would be if the belt wasn't driving the alternator causing low voltages to the electronic transmission.
What does a bad modulator valve do?
If the transmission modulator valve is vacuum operated and it goes bad it can allow the engine to suck transmission fluid thru the engine causing the engine to blow blue smoke out the exhaust.

Check all front end components for wear. Then check the engine and transmission mounts as the engine could be shifting and causing the shake.
What is meant by harsh shift in automatic transmission?
A harsh shift on a transmission is when the driver of a vehicle can hear or feel the gearbox shifting. Sometimes the gearbox will lock and not shift causing the rev limiter to reach the red line. When it finally shifts the car will shake and jolt forward.
What keeps the transmission from shifting?
If you have a manual transmission, a worn out or defective clutch could cause it to not shift. There could also be internal damage to the transmission, causing the gears to not mesh together and slip. The shift linkage may also be loose, and preventing the transmission from shifting. If you have an automatic transmission, low or burn fluid can cause it to slip in gear or not shift at all. The transmission uses a pump to pump the fluid and maintain hydraulic pressure, so if the pump is broken or leaking the transmission will not shift. The fluid passages can also become clogged and cause loss of pressure. Many new vehicles use electronic solenoids to assist with shifting, and if the wiring harness or vehicle's computer stops working correctly, the transmission will not shift. In either case, you should take the vehicle to reputable transmission repair facility, where they can properly diagnose the cause of your issue.

What would cause an automatic transmission to delay downshift when slowing down The transmission allows the rpm's to drop as low as 200 before shifting nearly causing the engine to die?
It's probably the torque converter lockup relay. It could also be the torque converter, but there isn't any way to test this on your own. You'll have to take it to a trustworth transmission shop.
Why would your car feel like it shifting gears going down the high way but not in low speeds like in town?
Automatic transmission shifts can be related to fluid temperature and some vehicles also have sport style settings that can change shift quality. If the shifting is irregular and causing unusually high engine speeds this could be a symptom of transmission gear slippage. Gear slippage can result in transmission damage, and should be checked as soon as possible. Automatic transmissions are complex systems, and their overhaul/replacement can be very expensive repairs.
