Weird sound once I hit 50mph
Not exactly sure how to describe it, it sounds slightly metallic but also slightly like exhaust. The sound only comes on after I hit 50mph and isn't there at idle so I can isolate where it's coming from or what material its originating from. My check engine light hasn't come on and I haven't noticed a loss in power.
If you have any questions that might help you better understand what is happening, please ask. I'm not sure how to best describe it

Welcome to the site!
Can you post a sound clip?
Does the sound vary with RPM or only speed?
The usual suspects are the heat shields on the cats as they rust away, they will rattle at higher rpms which may coincide with certain speeds.
The good news is they are easily fixed with either hose clamps to tighten them down or you can jsut cut them off with tin snips
there are a number of threads on this topic so feel free to poke around
