Engine Break in question

Hi Guys,

I've read Jay's article on breaking in a new engine but I have a dilemma. I'm going to be getting my truck next week (I sincerely hope) and will be travelling ~230 miles by freeway that weekend. The question is; will varying the speed (55-75) and perhaps moving in and out of tow/haul periodically, vary the RPM's enough to avoid "bad things" during the <1,000 break in period? Or is this something I should be worrying about. This is my first Diesel ever and would appreciate any/all information or suggestions.

I really don't want to take my other vehicles when I have a brand new toy!

Thanks for any info.
