New oil Change
I typically change oil long before recommended, usually at 50%.
Anyone think the first one in a non Z51 car should be earlier that recommended by the Oil Life Indicator?

I ususally change oil first time on my new cars at ~1000 miles. Probably not "necessary" but it can't hurt to get the break-in crap out. Chevy did my Z51 at 500 this time so I didn't have to. :-)

I did it in my base at 1500 miles. Mine is a '15 and I got the 4 free changes, so it eemed like a no brainer to me. But even if I had to pay for it I would have had it done, in my younger days I would have done the changes myself, just don't have the room now.
