[QUOTE="Hockster, post: 558927, member: 70"] All you need to do is not drive the same speed for the first 1000 miles. SO dont pick up the truck, hit the highway get up to 70mph, set the cruise and go. Drive it at 60 first then go to 65 then 55 then 75 then 80 then 40 you get the idea? No way would any auto manufacturer sell a vehicle that you couldnt take it and go somewhere. Hope this helps ya... BREAKING-IN YOUR VEHICLE Your vehicle does not need an extensive break-in. Try not to drive continuously at the same speed for the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km) of new vehicle operation. Vary your speed frequently in order to give the moving parts a chance to break in. Drive your new vehicle at least 1,000 miles (1,600 km) before towing a trailer. For more detailed information about towing a trailer, refer to Trailer towing in the Tires, Wheels and Loading chapter. Do not add friction modifier compounds or special break-in oils since these additives may prevent piston ring seating. See Engine oil in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter for more information on oil usage. [/QUOTE]
