I think dino oil changed at 3000 for normal wear is as good as changing at 7500+ when using synthetic in gas engines. Thin synthetic on start up is the best part about synthetic from my understanding.
Besides the improved cold-start lube and reduced viscosity reduction that synthetic oils give, the extended oil change is a big plus. No changing in the middle of a long trip and less rolling around on the ground changing oil. My old bones don't find the oil changing process as easy as when I was 50.
Changing eight quarts of oil on your sun cruiser is a piece of cake in comparison to the twenty quarts on a diesel. Just the filter alone is a job and a half wrestling with it trying to get leverage to unscrew it off on diesel engines.
Gasoline engines takes about twenty minutes to change. Diesels take about an hour or more to completely finish the job.
