If you change your oil every 3000 miles you may as well just buy fresh oil from the store, and dump it right down the drain. Big Jim is right. A lot of the newer Trucks with oil change indicators don't turn the light on until around 7500 miles. Why would the people who designed the engine do that? because they know whats good for it. All the big motor companies are claiming to have long lasting engines, if 7500 mile oil changes were gonna hurt that claim, they wouldnt tell ya to do it!
