Glad mine didn't smell like POT. I wouldn't be able to get anybody out of my car, and would have to pack a constant supply of snacks in the back, especially in this city.

congrats on the new ride. i would be easy on her for the first 1000 and change the oil out to Mobil 1, but this is totally upto you. If you do change the oil at 1000, check the filter for metal shavings.
Here is my helpful tip of the day.....

I must have got one built during the great smoke out day. Mine had the usual burn-in smell the first day and now the smell is gone, but never had the good fortune of a pot-smelled break in period.....LOL
