This is true. I know it is proper maintenance to check your dip stick once every couple hundred miles I guarantee more than 90% of the moms driving mini vans don't even know where a dip stick is.

I think 3 Quartz is super ridiculous. I would say the max for me would be 1 quart and I have never even seen anything above that.
