Arrow For Road Rage

I'm just nearing 3.2k miles and was wondering how much does Red Line 5w20 oil goes for? And where can I get it? Also, in your honest opinion, which is more economical for me?

oil change every 3,750 miles from the dealer for $30 each, or every 7,500 miles with Red Line? Seeing as I don't even know how much oils go for, I couldn't really make judgement. I work is 41 miles away, and I seriously doubt I fall under extreme driving conditions. (Unless you think cruizing at 80 is extreme driving)

Edga:

Said this before - I think a quality mineral oil these days is a fine lubricant. I also think that under the circumstances you describe, your oil can likely go 5000 miles no sweat. Still 3750 is cheap insurance.

I recommend synthetic for the following
1) Racing (Redline G5 lube)
2) Hi perf street driving (G4 lube - Mobil1, Valvoline, etc.)
3) Hi-revving engines such as Honda S2000
4) High load, hi temp driving (trailer loads in summer)

Redline retails for about $8/quart
