Any reason NOT to take 1,000 mile road trip during break-in?
Planning jaunt within a few weeks of taking delivery. Assuming I don't peg RPMs, break hard, etc., any good reason not to take a long road trip? Could always fly...

Supposed to vary drivetrain RPM (not just engine RPM) during break-in, so avoid Interstates.
I did a 500+ mile trip during break-in, staying on secondary roads. Since I'd have to slow down or stop every few miles for small towns, it worked out well.

Go For It! BUT........
Just vary speed a little. Don't get up on the interstate and set the cruise and go. You will want to keep from running a constant speed for too long. Not only that, but there's much more to see on the back roads! Go find some twisties and enjoy the car.
