Are you talking about the air moving sound? Kind of like a jet engine

Normal. If it doesn't go away after a few minutes when the engine is cold, likely the fan clutch has failed.

That's the fan as HeyYou said it's normal until the truck warms up

It always sounds like that whether the engine is cold or hot, its made that sound ever since I got the truck. So would my best bet be replacing the fan clutch?

Yeah you could, but I don't see a problem with it. You could just have a heavy duty fan clutch on there. Wouldn't hurt though
