How long have you ever gone between oil changes?

Personally, I do the 5k oil change.

I was once part of a gas saving forum. There was a guy their touting this stuff called synlube (syn-lube) that was supposed to be a once in a lifetime oil change. I am no longer a member on that site (actually web site doesn't exist anymore) but last I heard, he was at 56,000 miles without changing it. We were all waiting for something catastrophic to happen.

once a year oil change is possible with a bypass filter.

Most i've done is 10k km.. about 6.2k miles. I should stick to 5k oil change, but i think i will go with 3k changes, since i'm doing alot of short trips and condensation seem to build up in the winter.
