Experienced eyes can tell a lot by looking at the dipstick. What's one of the first thing a sharp used car buyer does? Pop the hood, pull the dipstick. Nice and clean, probably well maintained. Nasty, black as tar, probably some gunk in that motor and an owner that waited till the light came on or longer.

Ever been a recall to lower the oil change interval below 3K? Nope.

Ever been an OLM recall to shorten the oil change intervals because of potential engine damage? Yes.

Case closed.
Or the used car lot changed the oil in it right before they parked it in the lot....... just sayin
