As long as you check your oil frequently for awhile.
Your first synthetic change should be at or near 3k, the rest of them can be longer, if you're comfortable with extended oil changes.
I wish I'd taken a pic, but I ran the same oil/filter in Cara for 10k+ miles and only added 2qts, one to replace the MMO as it burned out, and one at 5k miles. After all that time with 0w30 oil, the engine oil was still clean and honey-colored, not black. I wasn't running an air filter for most of that, either.

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.
