Got my 2020 SCREW last week and have been driving it everywhere I can think of to gently put on some miles as the manual says to break it in properly...take my daughter to the Starbucks drive thru...run errands for my wife...etc...

Well I'm not the patient type, so with about 500 miles on it I took it out and did what a Raptor was built to do...

Good job!!!

Except for going to SB drive thru haha

That won’t hurt it. Keep an eye on the fluid levels during break in and enjoy more.

I did 100 miles of off road in the first 1000. Didn't think twice about it. You're not stressing the motor that much.

Well done. I had mine out with 415 miles on the odometer yesterday. I wasn’t doing any full throttle runs, but I was getting into the boost a bit. I’ll have 750 miles on it by the end of this week. I haven’t been driving it yet because the PPF and ceramic hasn’t been done, dropping it off for those tomorrow.

There are other things, like differential, that could possibly benefit from a "break in", but it's not something I focus on. Is there anything in the Manual about it? If not, then no worries.

Have fun with the truck!
