What does your owner's manual say? I am guessing that is says to change the oil at least once a year. I generally prefer to follow the recommendations of the people who designed and built the car. Many cars have a oil weight recommendation, such as 0W-20, that essentially requires a synthetic.

We rarely drive anywhere outside of "the bubble". I thought that agreeing to the mechanic putting in synthetic oil I would need to change the oil fewer times - and after greater mileage had elapsed. What advice do some of you "experts" out there suggest?
