Getting a longer OCI?

[logcar]

My car has a 4qt capacity.

I'm currently using Mobil 1 High Mileage Full Synthetic with 7500K OCIs

my question is: would mixing 3qts of the High Mileage and 1qt of the Mobil 1 Extended Performance(with its 15K OCI claim) let me get a longer OCI , while still letting me get the benefits of a High Mileage oil?...i'm aiming for 10K OCI.

Why do you think you need a High Mileage oil? Any oil leaks? Burn oil? Go with the Mobil 1 Extended Performance and a D+ or Mobil 1 filter.

Run a used oil analysis to see. Anything else is just an opinion.

Well it has 150K on the odometer, and it does consume oil.
I had been using Castrol High Mileage since 100K, switched to Mobil 1 High Mileage at 130K so I could go for longer OCI, and now i was just wondering if this would be a viable way to go even longer between changes.

If it is consuming oil you could extended your OCI without buying the EP. But we will never know until you get a used oil analysis to tell us how long you can extend.

Regular M1 has a 10K one year warranty. Mobil 1 Extended Performance has a 15K one year warranty. Right now I am using Mobil 1 0w20 for 10K without a problem.
