2.3 Engine lag at slow speeds

I have a 2022 Ranger XLT FX2. For the first few months everything was fine until recently I noticed that the engine would start to droan at speeds under 50. It acts like it’s in too high a gear and the engine is laboring. The droaning vibration has gotten so bad it rattles the interior and vibrates the rear view mirror. It seems to be possibly exhaust /turbo related and when you increases the rpm’s it clears up. It’s not normal and extremely annoying.

It's still brand new. Take it to Ford and have them work on it under warranty.
