My brother had a ferb F-150 that burned oil. He would add oil when he heard the valves rattling. 5 quarts every time. About twice a month. Oil change was just changing the oil filter.

My first wife had a cheby Vega. The joke was to check the gas and fill the oil with that car.

Well since none of the jokers above had anything constructive to say, I will suggest to go to Bob Is The Oil Guy, used oil analysis section, and search for posts that I have made. I posted several UOA's of Redline in my '09 at different mileage points over the last 9 years, with very favorable reports.

Ghetto dinosaurs?

I'm pretty sure they're called financially-limited lizards.

When Vegas where new they would leave oil on showroom floor.Have not even mentioned how much oil they burned because of the bad design.Weak aluminum block with iron heads.Bad idea.Heat would cause warping.
One of GMs biggest mistakes.
