Everyone on the internet loves to complain about long interval oil changes now, but no one ever has any research or data to back up their claims that this is dangerous. I joined an Accord forum and there is an entire sticky, maybe 40 pages long, with people arguing about when you should do your first oil change and then the intervals after that. I'm going with whatever the onboard computer tells me. From the analysis I have read from those who have sent their oil off for review, the summary stated that you can drive to 0% remaining life (on the Accord) and still have plenty of life left in the oil. The manufacturer has to build in a safety net because they know some people will ignore the warnings.
