600 - 1000 mi = 1 quart
1,000 - 2000 mi = almost 1 quart
2,000 - 5,000 mi = not a drop!! (break in complete!)

I had 1,750 miles on it when I needed to put a quart in. Nothing changed yet after 2000 miles.

ok, here's a more important question. Is anybody still burning oil under these conditions:
1) have more than 5000 miles on your car
2) are using synthetic oil currently

14,000 and not a drop used. No synthetic either. I change the oil myself every 3k-4k miles.
