You seem hung up on not relying on data. But an engine oil analysis is the perfect tool to determine exactly how long you can extend the change interval. Myself, I simply follow the recommended interval of 10k miles because my first and only analysis suggested wear was within normal limits at that point. I don't feel the need to spend $20 to extend 5k miles when an oil change every 10k costs me $30.
And keep in mind, it's not a question of
never changing the oil, it's
when to change the oil. Or do you seriously advocate never, even without analysis?
