Default Dash noise

Have a 2016 f150 and it seems when I'm driving 70mph I have a faint clicking noise under my drivers side dash. It's faint but annoying as hell. Anybody else have this going on its just at high speeds.

plastic ticking type sound? if so, then yes. Annoying as hell. With that and the plastic door handle noise, I might go crazy, even with the radio on.

Ticking? Plastic door handle noise? I have none of that. Does the ticking sound like a part vibrating?

The build quality is quite horrible for a truck that stickers at $50k+

I've noticed this too. I have the front center console instead of a bench seat. In my case, I noticed that it is coming from that console. I can usually stop the noise by opening and closing the sliding door that covers the USB ports at the front of the console. The noise seems to come from that sliding door rubbing on something. The noise is much worse if I drive around with the sliding door open, so I don't leave anything plugged into the USB ports that requires the door to stay open. Also, the clicking noise in my truck goes away when the temperature is cooler. I guess there must be a tight fit somewhere that gets too tight when things expand a little in hot weather.

I had a very similar annoying clicking noise a few months back. Ended up stuffing foam (grey a/c insulation foam) up into every crevice I could reach from under the steering column. Hope that works for you.
