I am sure the SO's late 80's Camry called for 10,000 "normal service" oil
changes. The car was largely a POS, but the engine never gave her any
significant problems - well except near the end when it was contributing to
the general cascade of petroleum based products leaking from the engine
compartment. I've never seen a car leak so much "stuff" and still run. I
think the spreading batch of dead grass was what finally forced her to give
it up. It is a good thing the EPA doesn't check residential yards....
