First oil change should be at 7000 miles under regular conditions or 3750 under severe conditions. Almost everything qualifies as severe (traffic, dust etc.) so you should probably figure on 3750 miles.

Take a look at your owners manual.

It sure is confusing, I have 1100 mi so far, I think 3750 mi seems like a good idea, second oil change at 7500 mi.
