Any strange noise on a new truck is worthy of taking to a dealership to have it looked at. You paid for a warranty, make them earn your money.

Does it happen in P or N or just under load?

Yes it does it in p and n but like a very faint whine it doesn't stop as long as the engine is running it has that sound

Mine has been out of warranty for a while haha. Mine almost sounds like the intake box is loose but no luck there. Trial and error until I just can't fix it.

doubt it would be your problem, considering how new it is, but maybe the ac compressor. i had a sound like thisand it bothered me forever last year and i never figured it out, stopped for a while, then the other day i started using my ac again, the noise came back and it hit me lol... only happens when the ac is on

You get the remainder or the 3yr, 36k bumper to bumper warranty. You do not get the 100k mile power terrain warranty.

What???? I l just looked in the warranty book and it doesn't mention anything about original owner only. Oh man, that sucks. The dealer I just bought my 2011 from didn't mention that either.

I don't believe that is true. I have seen multiple 20009-2011 trucks online that still list the 100k mile warranty as active. So I believe it will transfer. No reason for it to not.
