I use the Mann or Mahle filters and change my oil filter every other oil
change. I put 5k miles on Mobil 1, and 10k miles on each filter. 

Just changed the oil last night too...

Tobs (can I pronounce that "Tubbs" as in Sonny & Tubbs 8-)?)-

While I've heard going 5-7.5k intervals on M1 is a fine practice, I've
never heard of doing filters on an every other change basis.  To the
Enginerds on the list, I ask, Is this a recommended practice?  

I'd certainly love to forego that messy step every other 5k as 5k comes
so quick.  Fumoto'd oil swap every other interval would take barely 2
minutes, that'd be sweet.  I use the Mann filter and M1 10/30 every 5k
(seeing as I add a quart per 1k anyway)...
