If I start normal at a traffic light when it gets green it is okay but, if I hit the pedal for an aggressive start I feel a vibration up to 40 or 45 mph, after that vibration goes away and the truck runs very smooth. My truck is in a very good condition in and out. Thanks for your help.

Good morning.

The first thing I would do is check all the universal joints. Look for any rust around the cups and for anything loose. This is a common issue with this problem.
