Millions of people use MC 5w20 and change it once a year or 10k miles. No one had oil related failures.This thread makes me feel bad for buying the mobile 1 on sale and planning to change it every 3k miles

I politely beg to differ with that analysis, your silicon is needlessly elevated and is wearing internals. change that air filter. Your wrist pins are taking snagging on that cylinder wall. You have no idea where the acid sits on this oil, nor how much active additive you have left. No idea on the air/fuel ratio this engine is running or how much life is left on it. I would not push this oil to 10k without knowing what's really happening.Changed my oil after 8k miles with Amsoil SS 5w-20 (longest I've ever gone on an OCI - made me nervous). Sent in for Blackstone UOA. Here are the results for your viewing pleasure:
Most people these days don't, engineering has done a good job at that! There are more things to oil than failure, consider power, internal efficiency, fuel economy and longetivity. Like 300-400k. Most of todays oils are very good and unlike even ten years ago.Millions of people use MC 5w20 and change it once a year or 10k miles. No one had oil related failures.
