Default RE: 1700 mile road trip?

Look more closely it reads the same in the Challenger owners manual.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone - we decided (because it's 3 adults) to ship the car to CA and then take it for an inaugural trip more locally. I'll post pictures once it arrives!
I think the car will be much happier that it is being shipped. I didn't read anyhting about it in my new Challenger owner's manual but in some other new car manuals it says to use a break in period of 500 miles with varrying engine speeds before any long distance/constant speed driving (cruise control). Seats the rings better, preventing any odd oil loss/blow-by issues later on.
