the owner's manual suggests that the oil be replaced every 3 months but i drive so little that i decided to replace the oil every 6 months. i don't think i should double it and replace the oil once a year.

I already have 600 miles on mine since Dec. 27, 2011 and only drove it a handful of times. My mileage gauge must not be calibrated?

It's reads a little high (about 3-7%, like most cars) but should be accurate. You'd have great grounds for a lawsuit if it wasn't.
