My vehicles are in the Severe group. Mostly short trips. With use of Mobil 1, my truck goes 6 months between oil and oil filter changes, my wife's SUV goes 4 months. We don't put a lot of miles on them during that 4 and 6 month time interval. The new 2020 Toyota RAV4 will have its first scheduled maintenance on 03/28/20. If they do the oil change...GREAT! If do it later on. Oil is cheap, and the life blood of the engine! Vehicles are expensive!
I wish this video was shown on TV during commercial breaks.

I drive 5, 000 miles a year on each of my 2 cars, I change oil once a year using Mobil 1.
