I have responsibility for sure to check my oil and change it, but when I am trusting what the dealer tells me that my oil is OK, why would I doubt it??
also, there was NEVER any warning light or indication of low oil or pressure... the dealer said there were 2 quarts left in it.

ummm, i dont care what they tell you, change the oil at least every 5k, if not 3k. also these motors go through oil pretty quick. this is not surprising that you burned through all your oil in 10k. I was two quarts low after a track day once. but the fact that you regularly had the car checked at the ford dealership should help your case. was the oil change light not coming on? those things usually go by the amount of miles you drive.
