Automotive repair oil consumption?

2002 f150 truck 41,ooo miles on a 5.4 ltr motor.


? I have no visable leaks but went through 1 qt of oil


700 miles after oil change should this be normal.Automotive repair oil consumption?
That's quite a bit for 700 miles. If you do in fact have no external leaks then it's a ring or valve seal/guide problem. Does it smoke excessively when you start it or get on the gas? If so you have an internal leakage problem.
