Without knowing your driving habits I would be concerned about this. If you are running such low mileage becasue you are doing alot of short hauls it is more important to change your oil frequently. It is while your engine is cold the the acid causing, by-products of combustion get into the oil causing break down.

if it just infrequent driving then it is less of a deal.
