I don't think there is such a thing as body lube anymore. That went out sometime in the eighties. There hasn't been a car on the market for a loooong time that needs its chassis lubed.
3k mi between changes is for suckers.
Keep buying your oil like they want you too.
Funny, all the oil companies say 3K. None of the owners manuals do; who built the damn thing and who has oil to sell?
My (spare Dodge 88 caravan) engine runs strong at 260,000 mi. It religiously gets changes at, you guessed it, 5k.
