I don't know what this noise is and was hoping someone could possibly help me out. Thank you.

Sounds like rear end noise to me...or someone threw on some mud grips when you weren't looking. GL

Does the sound get worse or better when accelerating or decelerating or when you turn side to side fairly quickly? that'l help narrow it down. Side to side would be wheel bearing and accel or decel would be rear end for sure.

Holy **** that's loud...... (Second vid)
Yep.. Doesn't change with RPM, only with vehicle speed. Maybe a bearing going in the rear end somewhere. jack it up and spin the front wheels just to see if it's not one of those. Then jack the back end up and idle ("drive") it in second gear if you feel it's safe.

can you tell where its coming from? Have someone ride along and sit in the back, or you sit back there. If its coming from the back its obvious its a rear issue, its coming from the mid front between the front seats trans, under the front of the dash possible converter.
