Cabin Noise (very windy day)

I've had my crew cab 2011 sport for about 6 months and have never had a problem with road noise, in fact it has been exceptionally quiet. Yesterday I was driving home from an Easter celebration into the wind on the highway, going probably about 75 and there was semi-quiet high pitched buzz/howl (not sure how else to describe it). The wind was probably blowing into me at 30mph, but i'm pretty sure here in Oklahoma that has happened before and I didn't get this noise.

As far as I could tell it seemed to be coming from somewhere on the front of the cabin. Could have been a window, could have been through the air vents, I couldn't pin it down.

Has anybody else had this problem? I'm affraid if I take it into the dealership they won't be able to re-create the problem due to the weather conditions not being the same.

Any thoughts?

I've had this RRT done....twice and still get the whistle in a crosswind. Has to be a pretty nasty crosswind for it to happen though and it certainly isn't consistent.

Same here - every time I run west out to Buffalo across 90, and there's a cross wind, I get that howl. Like others, I haven't felt it was important enough to take it in and have the dealer glue a piece of foam on my truck. Lame fix in my opinion. So, I've lived with it.
