So we pick up our 2ss/rs rjt today at 3 pm from the dealership, woohoo! the salesman told me that i can't "get on it" for the first 1500 miles because there is a break-in period for the engine. can someone please explain the technical side to this for me? i have to wait 1500 miles to open it up? what happens if it is "gotten on" before the 1500 mile plateau? does this cause long term damage? any insight would be appreciated, thanks!
