I use full synthetic and go 7500 no problem. Just use a good oil filter.

But, "miles" is only a recomendation. If you drive 2000 miles a year and they're all city..... I'd change the oil at 2000 miles. Hwy vs. City and time all matter. What oil and filter you use matter too.
I hope you do 98% highway driving

If you live in a suburb or city, you should be following the 3750 schedule.

Cool! I use mobil 1 ep and it suppose to last like 10K to 15K but since i change oil myself so the cost is pretty much free, i will change it every 4-5K with mobil 1ep depending on how the oil "is" via reading the dipstick every so often. Only my first ep change so see how it goes.

You have to drive in reverse now, so you can back out all those extra miles before you are able to do your next oil change.

no he does not...just put the car on a jack to lift up the rear wheels & run it in reverse. Just make sure you don't have a looser friend like in Ferris Buler's day off kick the car.
