Just wondering if using no oil between oil changes is the norm for the SHO. I have 11k on my 2015 and it doesn't use any oil that is noticeable on the dipstick . I follow 5k mile intervals using Mobile-1 5w-30 synthetic. Not sure what was in there for the 1st 5k. Hopefully this continues to be the case.

Yea I have not seen any oil usage except when I had cylinder 4 and 6 rod bearing failure I was half quart low with 13k miles on the motor
So not too far away from my third oil change

My 2011 had 169K on it when I sold it, did not use any noticeable amount of oil between changes.

2013 w/ 60k miles and oil use is minimal as in it doesn't show on the stick and I mark my oil bottles (5qt+1qt) and I get less than 1/4" difference between what I put in and what I get out. Change cycle is 5-6,000 mi w/ Royal Purple. Blackstone oil report came back perfect w/ an o.k to go 8,500 mile intervals if I wanted to. They did indicate that the viscosity was a tad thin for 5w-30.

2016 perf. Pack changed every 5K or so with motorcraft full synthetic. 67K on the clock. No smell of fuel in the oil like when running semi synthetic. Use maybe 1/2 quart starting recently.
