update: checked the oil this weekend and the level was off of the dipstick after 750 miles. i took it into the dealership today and they checked it and topped it off. they stated that it took 1 quart.
my experience is with the oil at that level on the dipstick, it'll take about 1.5 qts, but i wasn't going to argue over it.
so now i'm looking at 1 qt used in 750 miles with 250 more miles to go during the "oil consumption monitoring."
i'll update you all at the 1000 mile mark when i take it back to the dealership with more than 1 qt/1000 mile used. (i'm predicting the future here guys)![]()
