The people who wrote the book made the car. I personally trust them over some renegade mechanic.

But why even have a forum if everyone is just supposed to google everything themselves? Isn't the purpose of a forum for like-minded people to discuss things, not just to independently google everything?

At the dealership they told me baby it for 500 miles and change the oil at 5000 like normal, but being used to breaking in older cars; I went easy on it for 1000 miles, then changed the oil, then did another easy thousand before switching to synthetic oil. But I'm weird like that.

I did not follow any break in schedual..... I beet on her from day one.... and threw Full Synth oil in the motor as soon as I could... I think it was at like 800 miles or so, and at 5k, 10k & 15k... changed the trans fluid over to full synth at 15k and still romp on her pretty hard, and as I found out driving to Chino's yesterday I am getting MUCH better gas mileage than I was b4, used to take me a full tank of gas to get to his house and back (I mean the last bar was blinking for 20 miles or so) This time I did a bunch of extra driving while I was out there, and came back with a full 1/4 tank.... so I say screw braking a car in... I say drive it like you are going to drive it from day one
