I noticed since last week whenever I gas to around 70MPH it makes a weird vibrating noise. It vibrates the floor and gas pedal and making a quick rattle-type noise. The engine light is not on.. I have no idea what is wrong. Even if I let go of the gas at 70, it will still make the noise alittle and then stop until I gas it again. Also... when I accelerate I can "feel" it coming too... it just sounds different. Any ideas on what this could be?? It couldn't be the wheel bearing could it?

when my car got out of alignment after hitting a curb I had that problem severly at highway speeds. It could be something as simple as that.

Your rattle/vibration in the footwell could be a loose heat shield on the main cat or something else on or around the exhaust & y-pipe. If you feel it in the steering read on...
I had a humming noise and slight vibration that would grow in intensity from about 35 to 60 MPH. After replacing one wheel bearing and starting on the second one, I discovered the left side inner CV joint was very worn. This was around 120K miles, so the wear was not unexpected. NAPA has the axles for about $65 and it's quiet as mouse now!

Did you replace the axle yourself? I just did my left axle and it was a Major PITA.

Yeah, left side.  I was already in the process of pulling the knuckle, so it wasn't too bad. I had to get a loaner slide hammer with a reverse claw clamp (autozone) to get the inner u-joint cup out of the tranny.
