I know the basics for tires and brakes, but what does the power train really require mileage wise, in anything..
The clutch packs in the trans, center, and rear diffs need break-in. With the fluids warm, it won't hurt (and I actually suggest) to ring it out by rolling into the throttle gently, then easing back off. I wouldn't romp on it from a dead stop though.

If you have CCB, definitely take it easy on them until 1200mi.
