First an foremost, do a FULL tuneup, and clean the MAF Sensor with some alcohol. See if it helps. Look at the spark plugs for any signs of oil or detonation (whiteness on the plugs).

Does it kind of have a sound, like rocks in a metal can when you put your foot down?

also, check to see if the exhaust pipes are loose in the back, they might just be rattling against something

a pinging sound definately comes from the front, so if you are sure it is underneath you or behind you, i bet it is something else.

can you put the car up on stands so you can get under it? my bet is still that the exhaust is loose or off a hanger somewhere. do NOT get under it with only the jack ford gives you to change a tire.
