I watched the video and understand what he's saying, but it's pretty clear that consistent maintenance is the key to engine longevity. This engine made it to 240k, which is likely much longer than most Broncos or other vehicles will until they're on their second, third, or maybe even fourth owners.
I have gone with 10k change intervals since I bought my first car, a 1998 Mercury Sable, using Mobil 1. Over the years, I've stayed with those OCIs, but the Bronco is my first turbo car and first direct injection engine. I'll err on the side of caution and go with a 7500 mile OCI, and since I'm about to leave on a 2000 mile road trip, it's going to get done today between meetings. Otherwise, on non-turbo engines, I'll stick with 10k/1 year OCIs. I am planning to do a UOA for this oil change on the Bronco to check engine wear and look at their analysis/recommendations.
