Burning rubber smell on start-up

Has anyone else had this?

It was the first 4-5 minutes after starting the GL in the first time for a day or so. And while I first caught a wiff after starting, the smell did stay with us for the next 15 blocks of stop-sign streets.

Thoughts?

TIA

I would get this early on - but haven't had it in a couple years. No idea what caused it...forgot about it until I saw your post. Hopefully you find the issue or it goes away.
