    Synthetic can last a long while. I drive mine daily about 80 miles a day and change my oil at every 5k because I plan to keep my truck for the long haul. If you don't drive a terrible amount, you can go to 10k.

    Welcome to TW! Personally I'm leery about those longer oil change intervals since most oil filters aren't designed for 10k usage.
