Thanks.
Personally, I don't believe so. I change mine between 11K-15K miles every time. I have my wife let me know when it hits the 10K mark then I change it the next time I have the opportunity which has always been 11K-15K miles. I send the oil out for analysis and it passes with flying colors. The comments are usually in the order of "the oil is in great condition with the readings well within the limits" or "with readings like this, your engine should last a very long time", etc.
