squeeling tires
I have a F150, 4.6L, 1999 with 18.000 miles. When making a right or left hand turn after a dead stop, with very little accelaration, the back tires squeal. Spinning that is. There is no load in the bed of the truck.Tires are Googyear Wrangler AP.
I wonder if this is normal for the F150.
PS Tire pressure is 35PSI.

Back tire squeal? Could be sticking brakes due to lack of use. 18K on a 99, wow.
Could also be low tire pressure, try pumping them up to 35psi in front/rear.

My 2000 would do about the same when I had the Goodyears on it I now have some BFG Long Trail T/A's on it they do it a little bit but not as bad as the Goodyears did so I say it is normal.
