Smile New FX4 owner issues..

Hello everyone,
Well i have been tracking these forums daily and came to the conclusion of purchasing a 05 Scab FX4. I know Toyota is more reliable and Dodge Hemi is quicker...and Chevi V8 is more refined...but as an overall package..I was impressed considerably by the redesign F150....especially the safety improvements! Not to mention the trucks are beautiful and ride really well. Well i have had my truck for about 3 weeks and i already have 1500 miles. So far...I am on the waiting list to get a new steering column(due to ticking noise). My question for you all is ...
1. My window seems to be rattling but oddly enough..only at night. I am not sure if it has to due to weather/cooler nights (live in Hawaii). Maybe an adhesive issue????
2. Also, I noticed my air conditioner makes a consistent blowing noise. Now i know that is what it supposed to do=) But I swear, when the air compressor clicks on, I can hear a different valve/tube blowing air out and then go silent ...then 5 seconds later..blow air again....then shut off...all while the main unit of the air cond./fan is on and going.

If anyone has any further info or similiar problems i would greatly appreciate your input. I am trying to pin point these problems for my dealer to fix.

-This is the part where you usually see people get ****ed and bash Ford but ..........I love my damn truck....problems and all. -Wolf
