Poll: What's your OCI, Mobil 1 users?

[RF Overlord]

2003 Mercury Marauder, currently just under 25,000 miles, which is when it will get its second fill with M1 5W-30...

All previous OCIs were at 4000 mile intervals until 20,000 miles, which was the first fill with M1 and my first UOA...I'll do another UOA at this change, too, just to see how 5k vs 4k looks. Once the car is out of warranty (36,000), I'll start extending the OCI to 6k and then 7k...

1999 Honda Civic - M1 0w-30 in Oct/Nov and Apr/May regardless of mileage. I never go over 7500 miles in this time frame. I average 5000 miles between changes.

2004 Toyota Corolla - M1 5w-30 in same format as above. Once it comes out of warranty period, will see 0w-30 M1. This car will average 6000 miles per change.

My latest and longest interval on M1 5W30 in a '94 Geo Prizm (Toyota Corolla) was 9379 miles. That was over 3.5 months. I added about 1 quart of makeup oil and the crankcase is 3.2quarts or about 3L

The oil was changed today but no sample drawn. I did have samples with 83xx miles and was told I could run them longer.

2004 Avalanche with 5.3L. I change when the oil change light comes on, or 10000 miles/1 year. Which ever comes first. This usually works out to about 5000 miles during a 1 year period.
