Default Oil Consumption

Does anyone know if ford has fixed the issue of oil consumption in the 2025 5.0 v8 engine??
I'd like to trade my 2020 for a 2025 but if the '25 still uses two quarts of oil every 5000 miles I'll probably just keep what I have.

There was a TSB so I took it to Rowe Ford in Westbrook Maine. They supposedly did a software update that causes the throttle body to close slower when slowing down. When it closes fast 'that' is what sucks up the oil and makes it consume the oil.
But after I had that done I saw no difference. When I post a issue with my 2015 doors not unlocking when it was o*F out. I immediately got a PM here from a Ford rep to resolve my problem.
If the Ford reps are reading this. Please assure me the issue with the consumption in the 2025 V8 is resolved.
