... for the record ... my poor cars (or pickup) goes about 10,000 or 15,000 miles before I change the oil. I swap out my filter every 3,000 to 5,000 miles, but I DO NOT change my oil as often as I should ...
With that said ...
The 150,000 miles on my pickup with plain ol' Mobil 1 ($4.50/qt) is doing fine.
I've only had the Miata for a couple years; but it gets the same abuse as Big Red does ...
Knowing that I don't treat them as well as I should ... I cough up the additional couple bucks to give them a full synthetic oil.
