I'm about to purchase a 2014 tradesmen 4x4 5.7 with 131k on it I test drove it today and it had a small to mid aounding tick when accelerating I've read it could be exhaust leak leak or lifters. At an idle it sounds fine and when you rev the engine you can slightly hear it but it's most noises when you start going. Is that a sign to not buy the truck. I hope its something simple because it's a beautiful truck. Thanks in advance for any help
