The standard 1 quart per 1,000 miles...

I think he just means that he will offer a price that after tax and license fees equates to the MSRP. This means that the price before tax and fees would be well below MSRP. For example, lets say...

The oil temp issue is not solved on the 2010 as the oil cooler has not changed. Either way, its not as big of a deal as initially thought by many unless you track the car.

Rear Diff: GL 5 80w90

In the 2010:

did you fill to the same level both times? if so, I bet its just that there is some old fluid mixed in the first time and the combination is not as good.
