Loud noises after parking

I have a 2010 F 150 XLT 2wd S Crew and everytime I park the truck after driving it, it makes a loud noise at the rear of the truck. It's a loud "ting!" sound that repeats intermittently for a few minutes (approx. 3 "tings!" a minute). It eventually stops. Does anyone know why it's doing that? Thanks.

Just your catalytic converter and exhaust system cooling back down. As the metal contracts at different rates, it will make that noise.
