Squeak in reverse
Jumped in the 2000 Runner today to go to the store and rolled down the windows and sunroof. When I put the tranny in reverse and started slowly rolling out of my driveway, I hear this gosh-awful squeaking that increases in consistency with the speed of the vehicle. No squeaking though in neutral, park or drive.
When I got back home, I smelled something burning, kinda like a burned clutch but I have an auto! I'm thinking rear brakes at this point but am not sure. Any ideas? I'm completely stumped!!

Maybe the E-brakes dragging?!? The rear brake shoes should be self-adjusting, but maybe its not working properly?!?

I'm really hoping that this is the case. Reason being, I can have any rear damage to the rears because of this repaired under warranty as the truck just had a virtual re-do of the brakes.
