The general consensus is to change your oil at least once a year in low mileage vehicles. If most of your miles are from short trips I would be changing the oil every 3000-5000 miles depending on the oil.
Wow... I must be doing overkill. Car has 2500 miles already doing my 2nd oil change this weekend. Car is almost a year old. I change oil 2x a year (amsoil) regardless of mileage.
