5.4 3v Break in oil consumption.

Well, after 2300mi, on my 2007 Screw, I've only had to add a bit more than 1/4 of a quart of 5w20 oil since new, I was expecting to add more than this during the break in?

I went 5000 miles for my first change and didn't need to add any. There is no real break in period any more. The rings seat almost instantly. So no oil loss there.
