I would just get under the truck and look around for anything that can move that shouldn't.

Can you reproduce the squeaking by leaning on the fender with the truck stopped, to see if it's something in your suspension?

With my truck ended up happening was the welds that held the tube coming from the catalytic converter to muffler broke so the muffler was sliding on this rusty old exhaust pipe. I could hear it during start up and going over bumps and it annoyed me so bad that i took the muffler off and left it straight piped from the cat till i can do a full exhaust on it.
