Having paid an arm and a leg for an oil change using MOBIL 1
synthetic motor oil, I am curious about how long this stuff
really lasts.  I purchased the 5W-30, which is working nicely
with the weather I've been experiencing (15 degrees F).
However, the owner's manual recommends that 5W-30 be used
only up to 60 degrees F.  Does this mean that I should change
the oil next summer?  MOBIL states that the oil is good for
24,000 miles or one year (whichever comes first).
 
What do YOU think?
