I wish I could find the damn info packet I got from Chevy a couple years back when I called bullshit that our trucks only need oil changes every 7500 miles. They had all this information, graphs and tests that showed quality of oil at the different intervals and debunked a lot of the "every 3000 mile olden day thinking" If Honda says 8k, I'd say just do it every 8k then. Afterall, its their ass for the warranty!
