don't go over 65mph on the highway
slow start and throttle
don't go over 3,000rpm
change oil after first 1000 miles
that's about it.
No way would I baby it that much. I would go absolutely nuts for that much driving that easily.

I fall in the in between camp. I try not to rape it, but do not follow the published rpm to the number. Knock on wood, have always been blessed with a well running engine.
