Less of the brown milky crap!!!
The small amount of oil ( a 1/4 tea spoon if that) in 500+ miles or so is about the same.

I'm still working on filling a 4 oz. glass in a year and half (about 9000 miles), it's only half full.
I don't get the amounts some of you guys are getting.
Could be the BP 93 octane and the Mobil 1 combination.

And I do a lot of short trips, average 14 miles that can take 45 minutes at times.

The brown milky crap is condensation. Yes, poor oil can cause more of this, but even the best oil can still have this same thing happen. My commute to work is 1 mile... I run Redline 5W20 full synthetic. This will still happen with my driving, so typically, once I get to work, I'll hit the remote start and let her run for the extra 15 minutes to help get up to temp. When I'm ready to leave, I'll typically remote start once or twice to get it warmed up before my long journey home. On the weekends, I put on between 100-300 miles and this driving pretty much pushes the milky crap to the oil separator and clears out the lines and my oil is nice and clean again. It's a vicious cycle, but I'm doing oil changes every 3,000 miles and about 200 miles before changing the oil, I'll run 1/2 a bottle of Sea Foam which clears all that crap out too, and drive it HARD.

I check and empty my oil separator once a week. I'll typically get 1-1.5 ounces out of it each time.

I have run Amsoil since my first oil change.

We recommend the Amsoil SAE 5W-20 Signature Series 100% Synthetic and the 25,000 mile EAO11 Oil Filter.

It combines industry-premier synthetic technology with AMSOIL premium additives in a unique formulation that exceeds the higher performance demands of modern engines. Signature Series delivers the performance and value upon which the AMSOIL reputation is built. The culmination of more than 40 years of expertise, its exclusive formulation raises the bar for motor oil performance.

AMSOIL Ea Oil Filters have one of the best efficiency ratings in the automotive market providing a filtering efficiency of 98.7 percent at 20 microns.

Shoot me a PM if you are interested in pricing.

Here's a suggestion for you, @Juanchy21MIA: Pull the drain plug and let it drain. Put the plug back in finger tight and then pull the filter. (A sheet of aluminum foil will keep things neater under there when you pull the filter.) Let it drain from the filter mount (it won't take long), and then pull the drain plug again. You'll get another 6 ounces of dirty oil at least. Pulling the filter apparently releases oil from a gallery - oil that will stay in your engine and adulterate your expensive new oil if you leave it in there.

Consider a Dimple magnetic oil drain plug. I've got magnetic drain plugs on the engine, transmission, and both differentials. MAGNETIC DRAIN PLUGS
