Default Wind noise

Anyone else get a lot of wind noise at highway speeds? I've noticed it a lot in my 2012 FX4 screw. I don't remember having this problem in my 2010 XLT screw. It's just loud enough to be annoying until I crank up the radio enough to drown it out.

I have 2011 FX Screw and I get a kinda whistle from around the lower windshield area. Thought it might be the wiper blades but it doesn't change when I turn them on so Im not really sure where its coming from.

My 2010 SCAB is quiet. Do you guys have bug guards on the hood? I know in my 2010 Nissan Xterra that I traded in for my F150 was super noisy at highway speeds until I took it off. (found out it was that through a Nissan forum)

The only thing I've added to the outside of mine is a toolbox in the back. I don't have bug guard or wind deflectors on the windows or anything.

My 2012 FX4 is totally silent at speed. It's like riding in a luxury car.
