    I had my new 5BW shipped to me. What did I miss at the dealer?

    Nobody thinks that 5200 miles on the factory oil isn't too much? I've got 360 miles on mine, and I plan on changing the oil at 500 and again at 1500. Then probably every 3000 as I'll probably drive fewer than that in a year. Conventional wisdom says that you'll have break-in metals floating...
