What is your idle while stopped at a light? Also, keep in mind these are older vehicles and don't have much insulation, so it will be noisier in the cab

Look here, and at your engine mounts.

Seems like the 2 piece manifolds don't really crack in the '00's and '01's like the '99 and down ones.
I always assumed it might have been one of the reasons that they made the change. That and the different head.
I never noticed a drone in mine but my hearing isn't the best.
Possibly just an exhaust leak?
