[QUOTE="Dwill817, post: 757792, member: 10907"] The 3.8s (07-11) burn oil like a MF’er but if you just keep a check on it and keep it full, they are actually pretty reliable otherwise. Supposedly it’s a badly designed ring that makes them burn oil so much. Probably wouldn’t be hard to put a better set of rings in but it’s a lot easier just to keep it topped off. The 3.6l (12-18) has more power, doesn’t burn oil, but it known to have the lifter and head issues pretty commonly. I have a 2010 3.8l with 78k miles. I bought it at 50k. I drive it hard and beat on it pretty much every weekend. I just keep a check on the oil and drive it. It’s absolutely amazing what these things will go up with a lil lift and some digger tires.
