only reason is because for under 30 dollars and about 30mins of my time its worth it. plus i don't drive my car a lot so while 2500 might seem much, i basically change it every 3-4 months.

I change mine between the 2500 - 3000 mark with full synthetic. But this is not my DD, so the car sits quite a bit. I run a crankcase evacuation system with a catch can.

I change at 5k and don't burn anything that I can measure on the dipstick. EDIT: I have almost 32k miles on the car BTW.
