Umm... that was a serious reply... a car driven harder seats the rings faster vs a car that is driven under 2,000rpms all its life never hits the temps and friction needed to seat the rings... so here is my serious answer with more depth for you.
Why do you think no one that drives their car hard all the time has the oil consumption issue???

The dealer said the car was 1.5 qts low after me driving it for 500 miles for their oil consumption test. They contacted ford and ford sent them the letter that is in the first post. The dealer informed me that ford was not willing to go any further until the 10k miles had been driven. I was told this is normal for the coyote engine. I also contacted the Ford Executive offices and had someone look into my case and they were told the same thing. If the problems are there after 10k they will look into it further.
