Default Metallic Clucking noise

My 2008 Mustang V6 started making this noticeable clucking sound. It sounds like its from the back and under the vehicle. It's very distinct when I press the gas pedal after every stop. In a way it sounds like 2 thin sheets of metal are vibrating against each other. Ill try to post a sound clip later.

Ive had nothing but trouble from this mustang as the dealership royally screwed me over. They saw me as a young vet returning from iraq with money to spend and exploited me. I don't want to ever go to that dealership again for anything (Ive had my "new" mustang serviced 7 times already from a broken control arm to a rear seat dislodging from the frame).

Im ready to start trying to figure out things on my own.

yes, but every time I take it in for a repair, it takes 2-3 days of my time (with a rental car or sitting in the waiting room for 6 hours at a time).

even their service guys who worked on the car told me I was sold a lemon, but it was my fault for trusting the salesperson (he said he was also a vet and would specially take care of me... big mistake)
