Awww, liberation! I remember it well! And I'm still enjoying it!

Congrats on the closing on the house and the new truck! As Eric said, please be sure to get 500 miles on it before you tow the first time. It does say that in the manual. If I recall, it doesn't prescribe a method but does say to do normal driving, varying speeds, etc. City, highway, a mix of both. Eric's method would work although I always just drove it as I always would but not towing. On our '03 we had just 500 miles when we started towing and did fine for the 51k we put on the truck but this '05 had 6800 before the first tow. You don't want to jeopardize longevity of the truck by being in too big a hurry to get on the road. Good luck. Hope to see you somewhere on the road.
