    HAHAH, I like your mechanic. I had a super annoying plastic rattle in the cab. I think I mentioned I am deaf in one (left) ear so locating sound can be difficult. I tore apart the doors, nothing, noise still there, tore apart the dash, nothing, noise still there. A bit later I had a friend in...

    Alright.... we found it!! It was a heatshield above the exhaust, near the CC that was broken and loose. He bent it up so it won't hit the exhaust for now and ordered a replacement. So YUP, was the exhaust and thankfully minor! That said, admittedly I WAS kind of hoping it 'was' a bad shock or...

    Bizarre update, I’m in tucson so it’s obviously usually dry (and warm). It rained, and the sound appears to be diminished when wet(?!?). My first thought was, well the wet pavement is just louder than dry, but paying closer attention it sure sounds like it is(significantly) quieter. Will be...

    Man, you covered the suspension bases for sure. It's going in tomorrow, I'll post back when/if we have a cause(and solution). Mine sure sounds like something clattering against the exhaust or a loose plate/guard, or something. It seems too "tinny" for suspension, but who knows at this point...

    Thanks all for the suggestions, a lot of good ones. My mechanic and I will be putting it up on the lift, as he's doing the breaks. definitely will be looking at all of those possibilities, and everything else! Hopefully have at least a cause and then fix! I'll report back when I know. Much...

    Agreed on all that. Thought about fastening my phone underneath (SECURELY).

    We looked at all that a couple weeks ago while on the lift, all seemed good there.

    Ha yeah the keys are the other "clatter" you are hearing. I couldn't get the phone any further away from them. Someone else suggested a cracked coil. The suspension seems like a likely candidate and wouldn't be found by me banging on it

    It does go into 4 high and low and doesn't affect the noise as I would think it would if that were the case, but will be checking both of those out this week

    HAHA, when he was playing I had a job where my name came up alot and I used to hear that constantly, I'd tell everyone, "yeah, he's the fridge, I'm more the thermos" It sounds exactly like it would if it was the exhaust, but that all seems ok
