Haha, indeed.

My only point is that "regular" oil checking denotes a car that isn't consuming close to two quarts of oil per thousand miles, like my car now.

I wouldn't say that going two thousand miles without checking the oil is "irregular". Then again, I average about 2k miles/month, so the miles tend to fly by.
