When to Get the First Oil Change?
I'm approaching about 700 miles on my ride and I know that typically one waits to about the 2500 mile mark before changing their oil. When is the right time to get the first oil change? Its a V6 automatic 2012.

Just wondering why anyone would waste good oil. Change it when the car tells you to!

I think between 1000 and 1500 is a good first number and go with synthetic..it cost more but it is well worth it..IMHO
