        I agree with you 100%. I have driven Chrysler's and Plymouth's since 1956 and have always run them at 1 quart low or at the add oil line. They do drop quickly after changing the oil and then stay at that level. NEVER, Never have I ever had a Chrysler engine fail me. I use Quaker State 10/30 and Fram filters. I know some of you don't like Fram filters, but if it works stay with it. Several have gone over 200,000 miles, a 1955 Chrysler St Regis coupe and a 1967
Chrysler Imperial Coupe. A Hemi and a 440. Others have gone 100,00 with no problems.

  Back when I was a lot boy for a Chrysler / Ply. dealer, it seemed most if not all the mechanics there agreed that Chrysler used less oil if aloud to run one quart low. Wacky as that sounds, my C-300 goes from full on the dip stick to one quart low very quick, then doesn't move at all after that. I have no leaks and can't see any blue smoke. I guess my question is, Was there any merit to what these old mechanics said or did they simply plant seeds in my 18 year old head. Thanks for your interest, John Peabody
