Does your 5.7 consume any oil? Just curious. I sold mine a few months ago and it had about 190k on it. It would use less than 1/2 qt over to towards the end.
Is there a story to the 1/3.5 ratio?
About 0.5-1 qt every 10K, depending on oil.
I had an '11 which I purchased new. I owned it for 14 years and it was THE best vehicle that I have ever owned. Throughout it's life I replaced a TIPM, front hub assembly, a fan clutch, and of course maintenance tune ups, fluids, brakes,etc, but it was extremely reliable and everything worked. The only reason why I sold it was because it was starting to get rocked and lower front door rust. Living in Michigan, I have witnessed the damage each additional winter does once things start rusting. I would have purchased another one, but at the time the 5.7l was no longer available, and I wasn't comfortable with the 3.0l long term. I know it is an impressive engine, but the 5.7 is proven. Everyone is aware of it's issues and there are few unknowns. Loved that truck

Hard to tell, but the oil level is that line just to the right of the shine about 2mm below the full mark. .5 qt was added about 900 miles ago when the oil level got halfway between the full and low marks.
