3 weeks.. 300 week 1 .. oil change 1, 600 week 2.. DD & weekend drives .. oil change 2 week 3 @ 1000 .. to full synth.

for DD's.. get packs of microfiber towels, and quick detail solution.. do a wipe down of front, mirrors, fenders etc., get any bug n sap n stuff off asap.
I'll do wipe at night and review in morning.. white flecks of limestone will glue down if not taken out fast.

dusters good pre-ride home, get dust and pollen etc. off. get small detail sprayer and keep in car with towel.. test it won't leak. autogeek.net has lots of stuff for all this.. oh yeah, plant sprayer with distilled water will blow off mineralizing spotting post wash, or morning rain or lawn sprinkle.

worth it to get polish glaze and seal then wax it.. wax wheels too, easy to wipe, but need to mark towels so don't mix for wheel, paint, vinyl, glass etc.

stay 6-8 car lengths back in traffic, pass only if no one there, no more lane changing as gets too close to those spinning wheels shooting out grit and stones.. especially on hi-way construction miles. don't park under trees, sap and pine cone damage not worth shade.
