Yeah, I could do much better if I drove like it was still in break in, but then why buy the car if I was going to drive it like that. Definitely not advocating that you should skip or ignore break in, just talking about when it is done.

Highway EPA figure is accurate at ~60-80mph. Starts to drop off rapidly cruising between 100-120mph and completely falls on its face MPG wise over 120 on long trips.
