Everything Automotive I like David McDavid, they are a pretty descent dealer.

What's your mileage? You do know that you're supposed to leave the break-in oil in the engine until 7,500 miles?

7500 miles is the "I drive my car 20 miles on the highway every day, and keep it under 5000 rpms" oil change interval.

3750 is the "I live in a really hot, dusty climate, drive my car 2 miles to work in the morning, and then redline it all the way to my girlfriends house 10 miles away" oil change interval.

It's up to you to decide which one better approximates your driving habits.
