I have a new 2006 Sonata. I'm thinking about using synthetic oil starting w/my first change @ 3500 miles. My question is this - How many miles are normal between changes w/out causing any engine harm? Please advise me on this. Thanks all

. . Most everyone is going to think I'm nuts but I have been using Mobil 1 since its inception in the early 70s and I change my oil only once a year in my 4 cars. I've used it in both foreign and domestic cars. Everything from Toyota's, Hyundai's, Cadillac's, Fords, Chrysler's, Mercedes 450SEL and even a used 1969 Silver Shadow Rolls Royce and many others. I average about 20-30k mi a year and never had any engine failure due to oil related problems. In fact, the only engine failure I ever had was with a used Toyota whos timing belt failed on me. Always had consistant gas milage and so on. I have not used any other oil in any new or used car I bought since Mobil 1 came out. In fact, when ever I buy a new car, the first place I stop after signing the papers at the dealer is the oil change place and have them replace the conventional oil with Mobil 1. Yes, 5 mi on the odometer and it gets an oil change. . .
