I dunno, my dad's 99 F150 (V6/5spd) did it from the day he bought it till the day he sold it. I never liked it (got on my nerves) but it never bothered him.

That's normal. . . . .

If you're used to FWD vehicles, you're not used to hearing it, but with the transmission mounted between you and your passenger instead of over the front wheels, you're going to hear the tranny whine.
