I have a 97 Jeep Grand Cherokee on 31" tires. It has 175,000 on it. I've had it since ~150,000 miles, and have had it for a year and a half now.
The last oil change was around 170,000, so I'm a bit overdue (I was going to change it when I got back to school over winter break two weeks ago, but i've kind of slacked off on it). Other that this oil change i've been good and changed it every 3 or 4k miles
I'm not sure what the previous owner put in it, but I put synthetic in it when I got it, forgot that I put synthetic in it, and got conventional the next time, and since then have been running pure synthetic.
I run 5w-30 and do not have ANY oil leaks. My oil pressure is fine... needle sticking anywhere from high 30s to low 50s.
I drive between 70 and 80 on the freeway, depending on the flow of traffic. I accelerate with a somewhat heavy foot, but I usually don't rev past 3,500 rpm.
I do go offroading from time to time, usually the sand dunes. Because of that I've been using Fram's tough guard.
I live on campus on the central coast of CA, and other than occassional ~300 mile drives to LA or SF, most of my trips are less than 10 miles both ways.
