Sounds kind of like a differential noise. Go to an independant differential shop and have them take a look. Corporate diffs are famous for losing carrier bearings rather quickly; although 10.5K miles sounds pretty soon for that.

I get a vibration when I touch the accelerator at around 20mph and sometimes at slightly higher speeds. I'm pretty sure it's the exhaust system resonating.

I had this almost exact same problem and it was my rear end. I started eating more fiber and it went away. No seriously it was the rear end on my truck the pinion seal had gone bad and leaked out some fluid. I had to have a couple of bushing replaced, cost about 400 bucks but thanks to extended warranty it was 100 bucks woot!

my truck's only got about 2500 miles on it so it better be the exhaust resonating and not anything mechanical.
