    Hi All,
    I know this has been beat to death in the past but I've seen a lot of varying opinions.

    Besides not punching it is there anything I need to avoid?

    My main question is it okay to do about an hour drive on the freeway if I vary my speed around 65 mph?

    The owners manual will have the answers your looking for. I can't remember what the Tundra break in was.

    Look under towing if I remember correctly. Mostly you are trying not to heat up the differential gears to much and heat cycle them several times. Motor is good to go.

    As long as you vary your speed, doesn't really matter how long you drive. An hour is no problem.
