I usually change at 5000 using mobil 1 synthetic. Now I just switched to mobile1 "supersyn" which claims is gauranteed to protectect up to 15000 miles. I think I'm gonna change it between 7500 and 10k though. Its only about 2000 miles since I last changed it.

I go by my driver information center... In most cases it wouldnt require an oil change till after 10,000 miles.. But I usually fold and do it at 7500-8000 which I still have about 30-35% Oil life left..

I am using Rotella 15-40 Oil with a Purolator Gold One, or something like that...

I follow the onboard computer, and it seems to be approx. 9000 kilometers (6000 miles) between changes.
