Don't see what's hard to understand. The book says 10, I do it every 3 except my very first oil change. Again, there are many reasons the manual might tell you to change it later, to whose benefit though is to be determined, I have my reservations on that one and what I'm doing won't hurt me. If I'm wrong I lose a few bucks vs being right. I also live in Hawaii where the daily commute averages less than 4 miles if I don't go out of my way. Between 4 cars that I rotate regularly, If I waited until 10,000 miles for each of them (one of them simply can't be changed that late - it's a different beast entirely), I'd be changing my oil several years in between each.So your saying you change it every 3k, but you don't? Do you change it every 10 or 3k?
If you think 1500 miles or even 3k miles is a normal schedule for a modern car then I really don't know what to tell you...that is overkill
The 1500 mile change is for just one car in particular that requires it. I wouldn't do that for a commuter.
