When I accelerate onto the highway there is a noise that gets increasingly louder.  It sounds like a high pitch whining, almost like a sound that would be coming out of a synthesizer.  I would appreciate any feedback on this.  Thanks for your time.

 had a F150 did this once the previous owner had put that fuel thing in his airbox, sounds like a turbo whine on a car, if you had it since new, check your airbox for cracks, or holes.

Another possibility is the serpentine belt idler pulley.

it is definately more like a turbo whine than a squeal.  I can't find any modifications / holes / cracks in the airbox either.
