I agree with most of above folks. Drive it well but don't go insane and you'll be fine. I go a little crazy on break in, but it's mostly overkill (and I know it).

3-500 miles - Never over 4000 RPMs, generally lighter with some bursts of throttle and keep the engine speed varying
500 miles - oil change
500-1000 miles - Moderate driving with some WOT bursts, but not from a dig. No going over 4500RPMs
1000-1500 miles - Adding in some more spiriting driving, but still being careful off the line (diff and transmission care are the thought there)
1500 miles - diff and oil change
1501-infinity - Drive it like you stole it!

YMMV and again, I have access to a lift and so it is easy to do overkill at my house. The extra oil change is probably excessive, but this sucker is MINE
