Kind of like awful diarrhea.

I think it’s time that we categorically define death wobble-
Death Wobble - wheel shakes
Bad Death Wobble- wheel shakes and you shake
Really Bad Death Wobble - sell of vehicle contemplated
Awful Death Wobble- tears run down face and leg
Scary Death Wobble - you stop and wife gets out
Horrible Death Wobble- you both get out, she refuses to get back in
God-Awful Death Wobble- new upholstery ordered
Horrifying Death Wobble- you walk home.
Then when people report death wobble we can assign them a category and then if they want to escalate we can look into that.
I love this place.

New sub category, God-Awful Death Wobble With coffee in hand on a Tuesday afternoon.....103 degrees- new upholstery ordered
I also love this place ....
Edit- it actually happened to me a while ago. Coffee in hand going 80 mph and ran over a bigass solid rubber wheel chock for like a semi, a Jhonson equipment truck was a ahead of me and this is texas on a 2 lane highway with concrete barriers up so I can't just swerve without hitting no one ! 10 outta 10 I would not recommend to not go though that again ....
Long story short I've been getting DW every now and then at said speed or higher,no upholstery needed but maybe new steering

I’ve always said that if you think you have death wobble, you don’t have death wobble. Because if you have death wobble, you know you have death wobble…

You are right
You don’t even have to have ever seen it or ever experienced it or anything- When it feels like the hand of God is shaking your vehicle and you’re afraid you’re going to die you know exactly what is going on

It came back yesterday while driving back from the dreaded San Fernando Valley. It feels like you had a blow out at 60 MPH. It's so strange. I slowed down and started to pull off the highway, then it eased up and I decided to limp back to my mechanic. It suddenly went away and it hasn't come back at all. I had hit a bump as I accelerated, after waving around a tailgater. And, I guess the frequency of the bump was just right to set it off. My whole front end started shaking violently, and my steering wheel felt like it was going to come off in my hand. Never experienced this in 25 years, but it is scary. Idiot tailgaters, and I was doing 70MPH, and not in the fast lane.
