I also just picked up an '18 1SS 1LE, at about 700 miles now. Just did the first oil change this weekend at 672 miles. I *mostly* followed the break in up until the oil change. Probably got above 4k rpm a few times, but never redlined it. I think not lugging it is more important. Now that I have the first oil change in I'll be a bit more liberal with the revs, but still not gonna beat on it too bad.

At 1500 miles I'll do another engine oil change, change the diff oil, and drive like normal.

And don't worry if you hear some crazy crunching sounds coming from the back of the car when you turn into a steep driveway. It probably lifted the inside rear wheel and the E-Diff makes some noise trying to compensate.
