and on the subject of 'waste of money' changing at 3k, oil is cheap as chips. A rebuilt N52 would run $3k+ just for the engine (no labor). Thats a shite load of oil.

If you have ever rebuilt a few engines, you know you can spot the one that had long change intervals regardless of the brand of oil...
