Smile GM guy buys first ever Ford Truck!!!

Hello all,
Just purchased my first ever Ford Truck. - '04 Screw FX4.
So far I love it. I bought it knowing it is going back in for a lifter replacement. Has anyone had this experience and also the Steering vibration? It's under warranty still and I used the Recalls/TSBs section here to verify.
Let me know your feedback onthese two concerns.- thanks.

Exiled,
What did yours sound like? Mine rattles at start and sounds like a diesel at idle.
