I noticed that theres like a squealing noise coming from the back of my truck. I can only hear it if im going through a drive thru. It changes sound as i speed up. I have 82k on my truck and wide tires. Anybody got any input? thanks

Get someone to walk beside you or have them drive slow and you try and narrow it down, u-joints, wheel bearings, just bad echo might be belt tensioners/belts

Most likely its a u-joint. Take a peek at where the u-joint caps meet the joint itself - if there is any rust visible the joint it bad. The best way to check is to remove any tension from the drive train (wheels in the air or trans in neutral) and check them for looseness.
