That sounds right to me too. But where did all the old oil go to if you did your pre-trip fluid checks? Did you notice more smoke coming out of exhaust during the drive to Visalia?

I burn about one quart every 3,000 but don't have any noticeable leak on the garage floor and no smoke out of exhaust pipe. Not sure how engine can burn that much oil without leaving some evidence? I'm a mystified novice.
Happy new year!
