Engine braking during break in helps seat piston rings.

Which says to drive gently. Suggested for the masses who know nothing of cars and can't be trusted to do anything more complicated.

We'll just got home and started the pickup. It has been sitting since last night at 7pm. No blue smoke. Going to chalk it up to something to do with the break in. Going to keep an eye on it obviously.

Unless things have changed, blue/ black smoke is fuel, oil is white, antifreeze is grey/white.

Blue oil. Black fuel. White anitfreeze

My '15 would do that as well. My brother in law gave me a hard time about it. He drives a Ram so his opinion really means nothing I wouldn't worry about it,my truck did it whenever it was cold. I tried to remote start it when I couldn't see the exhaust pipe.

if he drives a ram, his opinion def doesnt matter!

Is this procedure not done by GM before the vehicles even get to the lot?

Just the DI. It'll do it every cold start.

LOL.... Mine does not smoke at all! Run the damn truck and forget about it.
