Default OIL Consumption ??

How is the Hemi with Oil consumption? The 4 banger I have now goes thru 1qt of oil every 3k miles. Not that big of a deal but it is annoying.

Just did my 5k service and not a drop was used, I asked the dealer about using synthetics and he does not recommend it until the engine is fully broken in, otherwise the rings may not seat and it could burn oil. It is not covered under warrantee!!
