until I knew exactly what the problem was, yes. If you have another vehicle to drive, drive it and park the truck. Better safe than sorry

I'm sure this isn't the case, but my first thought was that it sounds like it can't breathe. Like I said, I highly doubt this is the case, but check your air filter... which I'm sure you already have.

Thanks roofis, the air filter is new and clean, no obstructions either.

I have seen a few other 5.0's with this noise, I think it maybe normal?

I always thought mine was noisey. I had to go start it after reading and listening. No mine does NOT sound like that. Unless your phone's recording is making it worse.
