Scrapping noise

Since new (all ten days now), I have heard an occasional scraping sound
coming from the rears. Like the brakes are grinding or the inside of the
wheels are scrapping the calipers or something.

It hasn't stopped raining when I'm available to work on the truck, or I
would have pulled the black wheels and drums off to have a looksy. Anybody
have this scrapping sound? Heard it first driving away from the dealer,
but it was 11pm in the rain on a Sunday. I figure if something is wrong, I
want the part thrashed anyway so I don't have to argue about full
replacement instead of repair, but I really don't have time to get to the
dealer for another two weeks.
