Break In Secrets

I have always believed it was best to break in an engine like you plan to drive it. In my Jeep GC, I broke it in hard, and at 140,000 miles it still runs strong and doesn't use a drop of oil.

that web site even says:

'There's a very small window of opportunity to get the rings to seal really well ... the first 20 miles'

Is he referring to lawn mowers? I bought my Viper with 100 miles on it. And it has been sitting at the dealership for 2 years before I bought it. I don't know..
