also, do you not change the filter either when you go that long without an oil change? I'm thinking about leaving the oil but changing the filter 3 times a year.
I last changed my oil in July and I've driven about 8K miles. I'm going to change it this weekend.

Yes I never exceed 3000 to 4000 rpms for at least 10 miles. I changed the oil filter with the oil, my owner's manual says every other oil change.
