Default whining noise?

So i have an 05 xlt and im hearing a high pitch whining/squeeling noise at high way speeds in the cab is not that bad but when the windows are down and im in a tunnel its pretty loud its hard to pin point a location like back or front but my guess is at may be a wheel bearing any ideas guys?

.... jack the wheel up and check for movements....... or drive it like 60mph for like 30 mins jump out and touch the part of your wheel closest to the wheel bearing area... if it burns the crap out of you..... its a wheel bearing..... if its not a wheel bearing could be you need new brakes....... they have wear indicators (squalers)...
