'01 70k+ miles, 5 spd manual trans=high rpms on highway...
If I do 1500 of mostly "around town/around the county mtns/some highway runs, I usually need less
than a half qt in that mileage window.
If we do a run north to NJ/NY and back, about 1500+ miles of nearly all highway, I may need close to a qt.
I don't keep OCD type records, but I don't think my oil consumption has increased any over the past 20-30k miles, however.
And, the coolant "leak" has healed itself to just a few ounces every 2000-3000 miles.
I would doubt that many report "no/very little" oil consumption with medium-high mileage on the odo...
