    Yeah, fairly sure. That seems to be where the noise is coming from, and it makes sense that the wind would be blowing up through it from the windshield. It's absurd at 60+

    So I think I found where mine is coming from. Whoever had the truck before had the windshield replaced and they did a terrible job! I've got places on each side I can see 1/8th inch of daylight out. Getting a new windshield installed by a professional monday. Will report back on if it goes away. This may be someone else's problem too

    It worked. The massive wind noise I had is gone. Turns out I had gaps in the sealant all around the windshield due to the previous person not using primer for the seal glue
