weird sound after parking 90 days

I was back home from a trip. it's a month and a half. now the car has some weird sound. i don't know where it comes from. driving on local is ok. but i'm not sure if i should go to the high way. anybody met similar things after long period of parking? any suggestions?

It could be your brakes dragging from rust build up on the rotors after sitting for so long. Other than that I have no idea what it could be

uh, any details on what the sound is like? where it's coming from, etc? related to RPM's or wheel speed?

my car sat for almost a year and it sounded like a tractor when i started up the vq, then it chilled, i can relate to the rust sound going down the road though. still sounds a bit rusty
