LMFAO!
If the RA does not come with synthetic from the factory why would they put the standard change interval at 7500. The reason for 3k mile changes on dino oil is that it starts to break down and lose viscosity. 7500mile interval would lead me to believe that the oil that comes in the engine is synthetic.
This is purely speculation of course. I am going to do my first change at 3000 and then switch to Synthetic and go ahead and do another change at 7500. I know that some will consider this a waste of money but it's a cheap price to pay for my peace of mind.
