You already know the answer....take it in to the dealership while you have the warrantee. A whine in the drivetrain can be many things; U-joints, wheel bearings, rear-end, transfer case, etc.
You are lucky to syill have the warrantee; take advantage of it.

Dealership has it, first tried to say wheel bearing, didnt add up thanks to having read other posts. I pushed to investigate furthur, they finally settled on a bearing in trans - long story short they'll have the truck a week or so and more than likely putting in a new transmission. Thankfully I caught it before the 60K mark.
