Loud Squealing when giving gas
I have a 2002 ford f150 lariat edition, it has been making this high pitched chirping/squeaking this past month; it only ever starts up when I give the truck gas, it’ll make a loud repetitive chirp/squeal when I give gas but if I let off and let it slowly idle the noise will die down back to silence. I’d appreciate it to hear any feedback or guesses y’all could muster up

Remove the belt and start the engine. It will be fine for a minute or two. If the noise goes away, it's belt-related. If it doesn't it's something else. Spin the various pulleys by hand, you might find the bad one. You can feel it.
