Although I'm semi-OCD on my Z's oil changes, I have personally met people who allow 2, 3, even 4 years between oil changes!; especially single moms/divorced women--regardless of how much mileage they put on their rides annually. The astonishing part is that NONE of 'em have had their cars "break down" (i.e. any major OR minor engine trouble or repairs!) I, personally, wouldn't risk my Z's engine getting that sludge build up, but I'm convinced that some vehicles can actually take that kinda treatment and go for miles and/or years w./o. problems. I just ain't taking that chance on my sweet beaZt!
