No, because a new vehicle has more wear metals from the factory since it's never been broken into before.

Do you think I'm stupid or something?

On a side note, I do extend the oil changes on my current vehicle, and I also send in a sample of oil to be tested at OEM intervals.

I'd also install a bypass filter on this new car.
