SD break-in

Fredvon4, I have used your break-in procedure on my new King Ranch right down to turning the key to the on position and letting the computer sink before starting. The running up to 3500 rpm seems to have let a few horses loose in my truck. Can't imagine what it will be like when I hit 150 hours. Also have done the branks as you suggested. All seems to be ok. Thanks for the insight on getting this beast ready for the long haul, I plan on keeping it at least 15 years.

I wish folks on here wouldn't give Fred the bighead so much...it'll get to where his wig won't fit and then they won't let him into them leather-clad clubs anymore. He gots to have his wig and high heels for such as that...


OBTW, congrats on your truck!
