My advice is to change the oil at the mileage indicated (synthetic for more confidence), and start your 4R atleast once a week and let it run for 5-10 mins. Let it get up to operating temperature. Short little runs aren't the greatest thing in the world for an engine, but its much better than letting it sit for a month and then starting it after all the oil has drained to the pan.

Jiffy Lube makes more money when you bring it in every 3 months, remember.

Don't laugh, but I drive the car everyday. I only live 7 miles from work, though. My commute is still 25-30 minutes through the city each way. Does that change anything?
