If you plan on having the car forever, change it every 3,000-3,500 miles or every 3-4 months. Everyone is a little different, and many change theirs at 5,000 miles. I, along with most everyon on this forum, agree that 3,000 miles is a good distance to go between oil changes.
But if you do a search, you will find a ton of info. Oil is a hot topic around here!! Good luck.
