High pitched siren sound when accelerating
can you tell me year, make model of your truck?
also can you tell where its coming from? front? back? maybe a stuck caliper?

typing and eating is not a good thing - boy oh boy the incorrect spelling - what I meant is you can hear it slightly when stopped but very loud when I am accelerating - quite annoying
Is the noise engine RPM dependant? or is it more speed dependant? If it's speed, you really need to check the brakes as Dory has suggested.
If it is more rpm dependant, I would start by checking your serpentine belt for cracks or other signs of wear. If you cannot ever remember changing the belt, now would be a good time. You don't want something like that to break. While you have the belt off, you could check the A/C compressor, compressor clutch, and pulley. The compressor should turn with a bit of resistance, but not much. If you can see rust on the clutch plates, that could also be your problem.
If it is neither rpm or speed dependant, it could be the hvac fan in the dash, but I do not think that a problem with a heater fan would be classified as a siren...
