Ummm... You bought a truck... They do that! No just kidding... In all
seriousness as far as I know that's pretty normal. Truck suspension is
designed to carry a load... When it's empty the suspension is pretty stiff
in the rear so it tends to bounce around a little. Pretty scary at 80
around a curve sometimes no???
