My 1978 Toyota Corolla has 200,000 miles on it and
does not significantly burn or leak oil.
I change the oil about every 10 or 12 thousand miles NOT
every 2.5K (I'd have to do it every 3 weeks at that rate.)
Sure you can change your oil more frequently and have
your car last a half million miles but by then
the body would probably rot away. The important
thing in my opinion is to use good quality oil
and change the filter with EVERY oil change.
