Everything with an engine and wheels is kept in an enclosed garage.
When the oil life on the 2004 Malibu computer shows it's time, the oil will look like tar and be a quart and a half low. I change it every 3k. At 4k it will be a half quart low, at 5k it will be a quart and a half low. So my cars and truck get changed at 3k. So much for trusting the computer.
As for tractors and mowers, I watch the color of the oil and when engine begins using oil. Some engines the oil will turn dark and begin using at 60 hrs, others will go 100 hrs.
Things that don't get used a lot, 4 cycle weed wacker, Generators, leaf vac, mowers, pressure washers get a change once a year
One tractor only had 60 hrs on it in 18 months. I recently changed it and and there was condensation in oil and on the oil fill cap. So frequent oil changes won't hurt a thing. May save an engine in the long run. Oil changes is cheap, can't see pushing it.

You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
