Here's a copy of someones repair report with the 1 qt/ 800 mile statement.

A quart every 1000 miles is still alot unless you forgot a 0. Why even change your oil, by the time it's ready you've probably already replaced all the oil in the engine. I usually need to add a quart every 10000 or so and I usually just change the oil when the add a quart warning comes up.
