Starting the last week I’ve been getting a loud new noise when I first get in the truck. It’s like it is screaming at me.

it’s been in the 30-40 over night but I keep it in the garage.

That sounds like a motor that has failing bearings and the rotor is rubbing the stator. No idea if that's what it is, but that's what it sounds like to me.

Forgot to mention this but the noise is before I put it in drive. And it only seems to happen the first time I use the the truck for the day. Don’t hear it the rest of the day.

Just an update in case anyone experiences it. Service center is saying the hydraulic suspension pump needs to be replaced.
