Our 8 yr old '01 3.0, used to burn its fair share, esp on long trips,
(due I felt, to the high cruise rpms of the 5 spd manual trans),
but for the past couple years, I find I only have to add a partial
quart per year, between an annual oil change. Dunno why the
oil consumption has decreased so much, and the ol'X runs
pretty well with ~74k miles.
