That's pretty much the take I got when I read the manual after running a 5.9L Ram, a silverado, and some ricer honda on the way home.

I can't recall a new car that I ever babied for the first whatever period. The only engine I ever did any formal breakin on was the engine in my Coronet and I basically followed what Mopar Performance recommends which is short part throttle and wide open throttle burst for varying distances not exceeding the 1/4 mi.

Personally, I wouldn't worry to much about it.

 

I broke that rule the minute I left the lot.

Though in Austin, TX traffic it's hard to get on it for too long.

 

well.. i kinda did a nice burn out when i left the lot.. @_@

now the guys know who i am lol!

 

thanks everyone fo your help. on other quick question have any of you noticed that the high beam indicator light blinks very lightly when the high beams arent on?

 

Never noticed that one.

 

mine does that on occasion. . .just one of them quirks

 

Yeah, I noticed the exact same thing on my new 2005. In fact, it's the only quirk that I have found with the truck.

At first I thought the half charcoal / half khaki interior was a messup, but that has been confirmed to be standard. Then I thought the doors were out of spec because the top lips extend about a half inch above the roof, but that's an intentional air and water channel (or at least that was what I was told by several people).

 

Did you buy it or lease it? If you bought it do what you think is right, if you leased let her rip!
