If it is a high pitch squeal or shriek, it is probably the belts. If it sounds more like a foghorn (maybe a little higher than this web site, then it is the "moosing" epidemic to us Duratec owners. Open the hood, windows and then put it in drive and reverse and see if you can identify where the sound is next time.

HAHA I love the example of the boat foghorn to describe the sound from our cars lol.



LOL. Only us who live with the "moose" can understand (or identify with). LOL.
