New Noise
While driving the other day, noticed a loud squeal coming from one of the gassers behind me. After about 5 minutes of getting angry at the noise and wondering why he didn't get it fixed, the car turned and I was left with the noise. Now I'm really mad that it was actually my truck. Seems to happen when over 15 mph and only when turning wheel to the right. My thoughts were power steering pump, or maybe a small pebble in right wheel assembly. Can't really pinpoint exactly where it is coming from. Any ideas?

I think you're on the right track about the power steering pump. Something is most likely causing your belt to slip which makes that squealing noise. The fact that it only does it when turning right instead of both directions means it's likely a problem within the system. Could also be the steering box, so it's best to take it to the dealer and let them diagnose.
