My 2011 Tacoma only has 5000 miles on it and it has had three oil changes.

CTScott, feel free to stop wasting resources, time, and money unless you really like changing oil.

Don't just take it from me...

You could EASILY go to once a year oil changes with AMSOIL. Pick the time of the year that best for you and just say 'every June, I change my oil in all my cars' and done!
