Oil seems to be a big peer pressure thing. Same goes for 3,000 mile oil changes. They are a waste of money for the vast majority of people. It depends on your driving conditions, distance, weather, etc. If all you do is highway long trips, you're fine with 7,500 mile changes. Short trips on the other hand.......

But whatever makes people feel good.
The funny thing is that you can get 5qts of Mobil 1 at Wallyworld for 21 bucks, but if you buy 5 individual quarts of dino oil it is 3.49 each.
