250 is way to early, IMO. 1k is really the earliest, if you're in the cautious camp, with 7K being the other end of the spectrum. I would suggest taking a stance somewhere in the middle. Normally, I'd be in the cautious group myself, but after educating myself on the benefits of oil additives, I've decided to leave the factory fill in a bit longer that I had originally planned. My suggestion, and it's just one of many, would be 2500-3K. Even Subaru suggest 3750, so I wouldn't go too far over that.
