Just a comment on a long drive like that with a new engine still inside the break-in period.
I have read that if you do take a long highway road trip with a new engine, don't just park it in 6th and maintain the same RPM/Speed all the time, this is not ideal for proper break in of the cylinder wall. Vary the RPM/Speed even put it in 5th for a bit, just don't over-rev until break in is complete. Take this for what it's worth, if you talk to 5 different people about engine break-in they will give you 5 different methods, but I have seen this advice mentioned from several sources. Congrats on the purchase!
