I drove from CT to Watkins Glen and back again for no other reason than to eat a sandwich...and to put 525 miles on the odometer of my new WRX. Glen Mountain Market Bakery and Deli has some fantastic focaccia sandwiches!

Now I only have 118 miles remaining before I complete the 1000 mile break-in period. Then I can finally go past 3000 RPM! Tomorrow should be a great day!

Not healthy. Though I did get a 4x4 one time, and by gum that thing was pure sex.

Never used cruise control in my life. Don’t even know how to use it even if I wanted to use it.

I remember the 1,000 mile break in on my 5.0 Mustang. It was boring not being able to rev it to its 7K redline.

Next time you are out. Grab and extra one and bring it to me in New Mexico. (you’ll be off break-in) Hammer that ‘boo-roo’

So close! As a fellow WRX owner, I say just bang it out right now, then drive it like you stole it. Also, my 2014 (I know different engine) was fine with no oil change until 3000 miles. As soon as break in was done, WOT pull because yolofuckboi.

Seems like a perfectly good reason to drive 525 miles. You get my approval.

There is no unreasonable distance to drive for a good sammich.

I really like sammiches.

Now I’m hungry.

You didn’t happen to bring back left overs did you?

Below 3k?! That must’ve been tough with the super sensitive throttle!

I pegged it once during my break-in period. I was impatient and also fuckityoloswag420.

It’s been totally fine, though.
