That's an interesting idea -- I hadn't thought of that as an indicator of a completed break-in, but it makes sense.
I consumed pretty much exactly 1/2 a qt of oil during the first 3.75 K, assuming I don't see any oil consumption over the next 3.75, I should go to synthetic on my second oil change -- otherwise wait longer?
