Most synthetic motor oils are "extended drain" intervals. I use Amsoil, and change it once a year.
That said, I believe that the 3K mile oil change interval is a marketing ploy to drum up sales to boost the petroleum industry.

i fully 100% believe that oil changes can go up to 10,000 without much of a problem. i, however, would NEVER do this EVER. when you can change your oil in the 22re for $10 and 15 minutes, why bother waiting that long? i do mine every 3k, faithfully. always have on every vehicle, and always will. (at least until i start getting synthetic).
