Yes, exact same thing on mine. It only happens at a very specific rpm range and under load before a downshift. I can feel it in the floorboard and the gas pedal. I did a lot of searching and reading and with this particular issue "they all do that" became an acceptable answer (for me). Certainly they dont all do it, but it seemed common enough that I stopped actively looking for the cause and just learned to ignore it. Like regnew62 said, its just seems to be a quirk of the Sequoia/Tundra.
