On breaking in the car, they're just telling you not to thrash it. If you get on the highway and look down and you're doing 80, you're not harming the car at all. Just don't redline it and drive it like you stole it, at least until you roll over 1k or so. That said, there are varying opinions on the best way to break in a car, and surely you will hear some here.
My car (an 04) keeps a rolling MPG average since the last time I reset that value on my trip computer. I think the MDs reset with each fill-up.
