Default Odd noise when accelerating

My truck makes a 'vroom vroom' noise from the back (somewhere near the passenger side rear wheel) when I accelerate. Sometimes, under hard acceleration, there's also a screeching sound that comes from the rear tires.

Anyone else have these noises?

Yea for some reason ford left the end of a pipe open back there, it lets gasses escape so you have to weld a cap on it to stop the vroom vroom noise. the screaching noise is the tires, its tellin you that you bought the wrong size and they dont fit right

I had that same vroom sound and did not like it so I put a Corsa on back there and, now, it is worse.

Maybe it's a leaky vroom vroom valve?
