I'd say 1,000 to be on the safe side but I drove it like I stole it since day 1.

Read the owners manual. In the section labeled "Essentials of good fuel economy" (under Maitenance and Specifications), it states:

"We do not recommend taking fuel economy measurements during the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km) of driving (engine break-in period)."
