That actually sounds pretty good. I will have to try it!

Most of the time, I do. I like to frequent other places as well though, don't want the competition going anywhere any time soon. That will just leave Starbucks to rule the world. Mu ha ha ha.:rofl:

Me and my friend with an S4 do it all the time :D :D
Hmm... when I bought mine brand new the salesman told me there wasn't any break in period. I floored mine right out of the gate.

Be realistic. There isn't anything "magic" that happens to the engine and differential at 1300 miles. According to the Book, it says gradually increase engine and vehicle speeds after this point. In reality, you can start accelerating hard now. What's the difference in oil seals and stuff between 1260 miles and 1305 miles? None.
