If you are still running AMSOIL (or Mobil 1), then a yearly change should be just fine for you, assuming you only put on 10K or less.
If you are using junk oil, then every 6 months should be fine.

If you really want the engine to last another 25 years (to get to 300K at 6K per year), fine. By that time, everything else will probably have crumbled away. To get to 400K will be another another 16 years.
