I do a LOT of hi-way travel. A 7.5k interval might be equivalent to a 4k change interval if you are doing an urban stop and go commute every day. You really have to consider hours of running rather than miles. Also, the Saab 2 ltr turbo turns less rpms than a lot of engines. At 75 mph, If I recall, it might turn 2900 rpm. My 4 cylinder Passat is around 3200 rpm at that speed. That's no small difference.
I still think that dino oils are far more advanced than they used to be, and do a primo job.
