Default clicking sound on acceleration 06 F-150

I've had my truuck about two month now and a couple days ago I noticed a clicking sound I've never heard before. It only does it when im moving. I've tried turning my air on and off and it still does it.

The trucks an 06 150 Ext. Cab XLT 4x4 with the 5.4L V-8

Just curious if anyone else has had the same problem.
thanks!

I've had more than one person say that. Im still covered under warranty so its the dealerships problem aha.

Its coming from the front passenger side if that helps.

Just want to make sure im not making my problem worse. Y driving it everyday.

Im no mechanic but I think a lifter would make more of a pinging then a clicking. Thanks for the suggestion.

Is it more of tick or a click, a manifold will tick if its that. It usually goes away slightly once it warms up and if it doesnt go away it may not even be the engine
