The reason we are geared for 3000 because the outfits like Jiffy Lube and the Dealers brainwash us with those reminder stickers for 3000 (as more changes means more $$$$). My rule of thumb is:

a. if you do 90%/10% in town driving to highway, then 3000
b. if you do 50/50 type driving, then 4000
c. if you do 90%/10% highway driving to in town, then 5000

Oil is a cheap way of maintaining a car to last 100,000 plus miles.
