Angry Help squeak only while accelerating

I just bought my 2006 F150 Fx4 4X4 5.4 on saturday.
Everything seems to run great but this ANNOYING / LOUD squeak that is only when I accelerate and only at less that quarter throttle or so. If I step on it, it doesnt do it, if i am coasting or stopping it doesnt do it. ONLY when I am cruising along at a steady speed. Squeak is coming from front end/ driver side
PLEASE HELP I CANT STAND IT

Tight U-Joint? Remove the shaft and see if a joint has a tight spot. Hung up brake pad?

So, I am not extremely mechanically inclined. What is this going to cost me?

Did you ever determine the cause? Mine just started doing this and it vibrates starting at 55 mph. Driveshaft? Rear brakes?
