I was told by the dealer the same thing about the first 1000 miles. They actually said to keep it around 60mph on the freeways, etc. I was driving the car home from Minnesota to Maine so I will honestly say that I was cruisin normally around 75-80 on the FW however I had to in order to stay in the flow of traffic many times and not cause issues for other drivers. I have 45k on the car after 4 yrs and get 34 city/38-42 highway.
