Default 2016 f-150 lariat makes squeak/squealing noise when moving

Can anyone tell me what this noise is that my truck is making when I am driving? My truck is a 2016 F-150 Lariat 5.0. Included the link to the video below. You will hear the noise toward the middle to the end of the video.

All I was able to hear was what sounded like engine noise.
Usually only 2 things will allow a squeek/squeal when moving , the first could be brake pads worn and rubbing metal to metal and the other could be possibly dry u-joints.
If is coming more from the front likely brake pads , if more so from under the vehicles , U-Joints.
We don't want to overlook sometimes a foreign object (stone, stick) that could have been jammed between the rotor and backing plate.
Can you have someone stand next to the vehicle to help pin down the loudest area the noise may be originating?

I don’t think I can. I just didn’t know if the wheels are moving if it would be brake issue or with the suspension. It’s going in on Friday and they said there gonna hook chassis ears up and drive and see what they can find.
