Been noticing since the weather warmed up and I can drive the speed limits on the highway, that once I get up to 65mph there is a vibration/shake. Could it be wheel balance? front end alignment? or what else could it be?

I drive on dirt roads a bit and noticed my 2000 blazer rims like to hold dried mud inside. I took my wheels off and cleaned the crud off with a wire brush and the vibration went away.

I only drive on the highway and paved roads.

Could be a lot of things. Tires out of balance, worn steering components, out of alignment. Could be simple and cheap to fix or cost a ton of money. The good news? Take it to a reputable tire / alignment shop. They will take a look at it for free and tell you what you need. I would avoid the national chains if possible. They make their money on repairs and not helping the customer (for the most part).
AAMCO used to say that 1/2 of all cars they looked at didn't need a new transmission. I wonder what the other half needed????
