When is the best time to get the first oil change?

Some rumours even state that the original engine oil is designed for break in and is meant to be in car for xxxx amount of miles.

The owners manual said to do the first oil change (schedule 1) at 3750 so that's what I did.

OP has a 2014. IIRC the owner's manual for it says 5000.

I hope that is correct as that is when I am planning to change mine for the first time. I might have considered changing it earlier if the dealership weren't my best option--and not the one I purchased from, so no free change for me
