I agree people like to change oil way too early. It doesn't hurt anything but is an extra cost and has a greater environmental impact. My theory is people do it so often because it makes them feel like they have made a difference.
Agree.

Like we talked once, I was guilty of changing oil too often in my youth. I think I just wanted something to wrench on, and could afford it, and yes, feel like I'm making the car better.

My last oil analysis on the twin, Blackstone said I could easily go 9000 miles between changes, and I have a lot of bolt ons.
