Upon taking delivery of my new Canyon diesel next Friday, I have to get on a 1600 mi trip the next day, all highway driving.
Is it alright to get straight on the highway for such a long distance? Or should I run a few hundred miles on country roads first to better breaking in the engine?

Any suggestions and recommendations to best breaking in engine welcome.

Thank you

Benoit
