Newbie - Scion tC

Hello All,

Just ordered a Black Scion tC yesterday. This is my first new car and am worried about how to maintain / drive the vehicle until the engine breaks in.

How much speed should I be driving at?

Should I avoid using freeways?

Do you know of any website where newbies like me can read and understand?

Thank You All,

Rave.

I got my Scion TC a little bit over 2 months ago.. Your going to love it!!! Take it easy at first.. But damn does it have power! if you get the automatic, don't use gear 1 2 or 3. It's best just to drive in D. Good Luck with it!

Go easy on it for 1,000 miles. Drive at varying speeds. Freeways are fine but try not speed too much (like 90mph+). Be easy on the brakes as well.
