Ed-
In non-turbo, you should be able to change the filter at 7500 miles/6 months and the AME at 15K/1 year. And yes, I agree with Paul that you'd get even better service out of xW-30.
AMSOIL and the Texas Dept of Public Safety did a field test. AMSOIL 5W-30 and SDF oil filters were put on 5 Crown Vic cruisers. No oil changes were performed during the 24,000 mile test period. Oil filters were changed at 12,500 miles and a qt of oil added. Oil analysis showed things fine, and saved money to boot.
