Most trips are less than 5 to 10 miles (8 to 16 km).
This is particularly important when outside
temperatures are below freezing.
Most trips include extensive idling (such as frequent
driving in stop-and-go traffic).
You operate your vehicle
in dusty areas or off-road
frequently.
You frequently tow a trailer
or use a carrier on top of
your vehicle.
If the vehicle is used for delivery service, police, taxi
or other commercial application.
One of the reasons you shouldjollow this schedule if
you operate your vehicle under any of these conditions
is that these conditions cause engine
oil to break
