At 11k miles I was exactly 1 quart low.
I used Mobil 1 with required viscosity.
Got it at AutoZone.

Less than 1k miles later the dealer did the first oil change.
No problems, other than the tech spilled some oil on my engine and it smell as it burned off for about 10 miles.
Really, it's not that hard to keep things clean, but they don't care as much as I do.
