Smoking & Burning Oil at 8800 miles

I have the 2014 Ram 1500 BigHorn Crew Cab with the 5.7L Hemi. I purchased it new and have approximately 8800 miles on the truck. If the vehicle sits more than 30 minutes, when I start it I get a huge puff of blue smoke and there is carbon/soot all in both tail pipes. The brand new Hemi is clearly burning oil. Either I got a lemon, or you should stay away from this gigantic hunk of junk!! Ram has been incredibly defensive and hard to work with so far. Biding my time and following the process to solidify my lemon law claim if they don't step up. Update: About two months after I wrote this review, and after four attempts to correct the problem (including rebuilding the top side of the engine) the manufacturer finally accepted my lemon Law claim and swapped the truck for a new 2015 of the same trim package. This new one now has 36,400 miles and is going strong.

I had this truck for a little while and I'm happy with it.
