Been real happy with mine, even with all its quirks.

Enjoyed my '13 and currently enjoying my '18 Coyote.

Maybe the cutaway images will finally put to rest those that claim the coyote is a "simple" engine.

Probably one of the most complex mass produced V8s on the market today...

Just checked my oil level (which I never do, because it's always the same level) and it's exactly the same level after the last oil change, 4200 miles ago. Oil is changed at 5K miles, using Motorcraft full synthetic 5W20.
I use the recommended oil capacity of 7.7 quarts:

Mine burns a quart over the course of an oil change, i never had the update done. If i did the update it probably wouldn't burn any.

Mine has worked pretty hard and flawlessly. I've also never had to put oil in between the recommended 8k Km changes. Knock on wood!

My '18 runs strong with no oddball noises but at just short of 30k miles, is still using some oil between changes. It was a qt every 1700 mi for the longest, but now after all the TSB's, its used a qt in the last 2650 mi. An improvement anyway, maybe it will get even better?

My 2013 drinks oil. It's no big deal I just add about a half quart every 1K miles.
