I do ~5K since I'm in "harsh" conditions. I drive 7 miles each way to/from work, and live in MN (-20F to 100F). I bought my '02 Aero Wagon in August.
Check prices with your dealer, mine was on par with Jiffy Lube, etc. and actually cheaper for labor only. I brought my own oil and filter and they charged me $14.9 (that included a $1 washer I didn't have). I used Mobile 1 0w-40 (recommended for '04 and later) from Walmart at $5.52/qt and a Mann filter from eEuroparts (~$5). I spent less than $45 for a full synthetic oil change done at the dealer. Can't get much better than that unless you DIY, and that only saves you $15.
