The only "challanging" part is: Avoid driving at any one constant speed, fast or slow. I still have to get on the highway to go anywhere so I am just switching between 4th, 5th and 6th gear with varying speeds. Non highway it is really easy to do so. They basically want you to drive in city through the break in which is easier said than done lol. Not to mention not hitting above 4k nor above 80 is NUTS because the car is BEGGGGGGGING for it. Above 80 is almost impossible... You are going 70 mph lets say and you just feather the throttle about 500 rpm and you are doing 85-90 already... Happen to slip it a few times on the highway.
Which honestly is fine, they have those guidelines so you are extra careful and not going around full throttle, redline pulls doing 165 right off the dealership. There will be time and place for that after 1500 anyhow lol. I will feel a lot more comfortable doing WOT once the 1500 is up and I get my oil change haha. |
Thanx a lot man! I was just wondering if you were really following the whole break-in or maybe doing something different. But it all sounds like a good plan!
& oh man... I believe you! I bet that car wants to go fast all the time!!
haha
