well if it shakes after you accelerate that does not soound normal. it could have a bad air filter or maybe low on oil but if this F-150 still has the warrity than i would take it to the ford dealer ship and have them look at it. cause there should not be any shaking if this is a brand new truck or close to a brand new truck. i have an F-150 2001 and it runs great no shaking after accelerating
