Most vehicles I can afford to run use enough oil that I'm
rotating fresh oil through there anyway .  YEah change the
filter at about double that, but otherwise, there's
enough fresh oil in the crankcase.  tHe GMC van Kathy just
rolled seemed to need a quart about every 3-4 runs to
MEmphis and back, figure round tripper on those 100 miles,
so by the time 3k miles rolled around between last oil
change  oil was changed out just in natural course of
events.
