Do not change your oil every 3k if you're using mobil 1 synthetic. Isn't the point of it to change your oil less. Unless your car is burning oil like crazy otherwise its pointless. I seen mobil 1 synthetic oil still great after 10k miles.

What is your logic behind thinking Amsoil is better than Mobile 1? It only pays for itself every two oil changes because of your false impression of Amsoil superiority leading to your longer change intervals. Notice how every 'Amsoil is better than Mobile 1' study is hosted on an Amsoil owned site and performed by an Amsoil funded lab? 
Anyway, Walmart's Trutech full synthetic FTW. $10 per 5 quarts and you can change your oil and filter twice as often (getting rid of all contaminants) for 1/2 the price of the most popular oil brands...

Please note that I have nothing against Amsoil. It's a very good oil. It's the Amsoil fanatics I don't take seriously. If they like to overpay for overkill, that's their choice. I take exception when they make it sound like other oils are inadequate.
