Heck, my car was 45 minutes away on another lot and they had to bring it to me.

It also still doesnt say the oil needs to be changed before schedule.

Not really because you're cruising in high gear most of the time at around 2300 rpm.

45 mins is not long, and you're going to slow down sometime during the trip so you are also varying the engine speed

Thanks.

Do that and do not keep the rpm at a constant rpm all the time... After it's done, Get an oil change.

That's it that's all... lock this lock...lol

Plenty of threads on this topic. If a keyword is too small (and sometimes not easy to search, we may allow such discussion). But I just searched "break in" and got all these results.
