I ask because a coworker bought a new Subaru car and he said he wasn't supposed to get its revs up.

Diesels don't rev to 7000rpm. Boost doesn't even come on untill over 3000rpm in first gear with a Subaru. Apples and oranges.

My brother always said for a cummins to break it in, put the winter front on and hook it to the biggest trailer you got lol. Get nice and warm but not hot and drive it!

Right in the Ram owners manual it states no need to break in a Cummins. Done at the factory.

Yep. I do believe they recommend 1000kms on other parts though. But as long as you vary speed a bit (not setting cruise for a few hours) and go easy warming everything up I wouldn't be concerned.

Really happy with the truck so far. Still haven't figured out all the fancy stuff. But getting around 10.5 L / 100 km at 110 kmph so that's pretty good for having 450 km on it
Just realized today it has dual alternators. Don't know why. Guess it's a option lol
Can't track down the block heater cord yet. Owners manual says it on passenger side by the battery somewhere lol.

Paid 54 for my 2015 2500 cummins, everything but leather, 10L/100 hiway empty, 18 with my 10000lb trailer. Sticker was 71. I dunno why they even advertise the crazy prices, nobody pays that...

No reason to mess with deleting / modifying and risking warranty when you get that kind of mileage.
I wouldn't consider deleting IMO. My 13 Ram has been perfect, DEF has made them better, better mileage and less problems. I can't remember the last time it regened, probably more then a year ago. Think it's only done it 2 times in 60,000kms. The big thing with them is they are meant to be worked, a lot of the problems come from guys who use them as grocery getters. I tow 21k 1-2 times a week with mine so there's never an issue with the engine working.
