I drive ont he highway alot.to and from school.My question is. going 80mph with my RPMS at 4k bad?...i like to drive around that speed but I feel like my car is going to break and that im going to get 2 miles to the gallon with that type of stress...or is the car fine doing that?

also how long is break in? right now im keeping it (when not on the highway) at or under 3500 rpms..And i dont floor it or anything.Im going very light...but when will it be alright to start giving it more juice.


And first oil change..when?

Hi. Read your manual about breaking in your Fit. From what I know you will need to go slow on the first 1000 miles like kepping the car below 55mph, correct me if I'm wrong.

First oil change is about 5500miles or when the "Maintenance Minder" lights up.
