Z, how many miles do you have? I could see you going either way on this is you have only 2-3,000 miles. If you have close to 7,000 you are about due regardless.
I changed my oil at 1,200 and again at 7,200 just before storage. I did one long drive the weekend before storage, of about 350 miles.
If you change it now, then you would probably establish the pattern to do it each year prior to winter storage, and this might be your best option.
Maybe the dealership is planning a big price increase for 2007 and wants to nick ya in the Spring!!
