Your mileage may vary.
There are a lot of differences between cars, oils, tuning, etc. that effect the life of the filter. A pickup came in the other day at 2000 km. The oil would not drain out of the engine or the filter.
They had removed the thermostat. The engine filled with sludge in 2000 km. A filter is a cheap insurance policy. When one comes out with a light or something that tells me the bypass has opened or the anti-drain has hardened, then I'll think about it.
