If you change to Amsoil you could push your change interval out to
15-25,000 miles. Since Mobil 1 doesn't test as well as Amsoil though you should probably keep it at 5-8,000 miles or so.

What JJsKJ said. Since it takes me 6months to go 3k miles, I change mine every 3k miles. If you put alot of miles on you jeep then Id go every 5-6k..

If anything ever happens to your engine they may be alittle picky on the oil change though.. You have a power train warranty for 7yr/70kmiles..
