Because you don't want to switch over to synthetic too early. Stick with conventional oil until around 5000 miles to ensure that all the seals have seated in properly, then switch over to a synthetic. That's the only reason I went out of my way to get the Nissan Ester oil. Did my first oil change at 1800 miles with that stuff. Then at 5000 I'm switching over to Motul 300V.
