Hey guys...this noise is still an issue. Any chance it could be a bad Catalytic converter that is making the noise. I thought about it, and since it only happens when I press the gas pedal, then goes away if I coast, I thought maybe its in the exhaust?
Any thoughts?

Not sure about a leak, but was wondering if a plugged up or bad Cat would sound like this, with the symptom of noise only with gas pedal pressed.

OK...thanks Sun.
I know this is an old thread, but thought I would help out anyone who's still googling this issue as there didn't seem to be a resolution.
I had the same problem with a grinding noise only when pressing the gas pedal. It felt like the truck was vibrating under my seat. It was a simple issue: bolt came loose on the crossbar and so the bar was hanging down a bit and rubbing against the exhaust. Quick fix (tighten the bolt) and the problem was solved.
Hope this helps someone else.
