as otherp eople have mentioend, synthetic is better but you dont need to change your oil every 3000 miles. I believe a lot of hte owners manuals coming out these days say 5000 miles. If you are running "standard oil" Id change it every 4000 or 5000 miles, if you run full synthetic you can go 5000 - 7000 miles.

If you are going longer than 3000 miles it becomes more important however to check the level every now and again to make sure non leaked out or "burnt up"
