Breaking In My 'Clave

According to the manual, Buick recommends a break in period of 500 miles @<56 mph, varying speeds for a good result. Anyone care to comment if I'll need to crawl back and forth to from Ohio to NYC this weekend on I-80? (I'd like to do the trip at our usual 72 mph...)

Go via Toronto, so you will be done with 500 miles in one way. On your way back you can fly at 85MPH 8)

Yay Toronto! You'll probably be the only Enclave though. Not many here yet that I've seen.
I picked my Enclave up last Thursday and we had to go to Shippensburg (200 miles away) Saturday for our daughters softball tournament. My husband drove, and did not stay under 56MPH. Drove like a dream, and we've had no issues. I have over 700 miles on now. I am not saying not to follow the guidelines for break-in period, but we did drive over 56MPH and no issues.- so far.... Best of Luck.
You wont have issues right away, the guidance is more for long term durability.
