Re: Oil Change....

I agree with Kurt, just some hype to make you buy more oil. I also disagree with changing the oil every 3k miles in your everyday car - unless you are going offroading or towing some horses. I got 192k miles out of a '91 Grand Prix SSE and changed the oil every 5-6k miles. So, I believe the 3k mile oil changes are also a ploy to make you buy more oil!

I'm not completely sold on the synthetics yet, especially to break in a newly rebuilt engine. I know GM uses it to break in all of the LS1's etc... but,
