    Eh. I consider 3,000 to be extreme. Joe, I think you're spot on, especially for that GT500. For a run-of-the-mill F-150, I would consider extreme oil use as like a delivery driver kinda thing, or a lot of idling.

    My dealer in the Kansas City area says every 5K. I drive a lot of highway miles so that works for me. It depends on your motor, driving conditions and what you think is right.

    Oil is cheap. I change it every 3,000 miles.

    I switched to full synthetic like my Bimmer. It says on the BMW 1500, but I do at 7ish. I'll do the same for my truck.
