Oil analysis is the only true test for the level of contaminants, additive depletion and viscosity breakdown. IMHO oil analysis is overkill for a 4 qt oil change. Truck diesels can hold up to 60 qts of oil, for them analysis is cost effective. I just change the oil every 3000-5000 miles.
If you can't afford 4 qts of Mobil1 and a filter every 3-6 months you spent waaaay too much buying a Saab.
