Default exhaust leak?

I have having a bit of a noise problem and I cant figure it out. I start my
truck and everything sounds good until it warms up and then a sort of squeak
developes and sounds a bit like a diesel engine does. I think its coming from
exhaust but I am not sure. Anyone else expierence anything like this?
Thanks for you input,
Chris

No, I can not say I have that problem, but from what I have experienced is not a squeak but more of a puff. Could be leak in air box, not to sure best way is to get under your truck and take a look see.

An exhaust leak is usually a tick-ish sound. Start the truck and let it warm up. Get under the truck and listen. If the sound gets more intense as you get closer to the under-body, it can give you more of a hint. Is it the stock exhaust? If so, I would take it back to the dealer.
