Corvette: New C5

New C5
Hey guys, just got an 04. Enjoying every bit of the ride. I have a few
questions:
I drive it one day during the week for about a 200 mile trip (highway), and
then on weekends for fairly short distances around town. It's typical to sit
there for a few days without being moved.
Any recommendations with these driving habits?
How long should I wait to dump the oil for the first time?
I think the dealership uses Mobil 1, but does the GM use Mobil 1 or do they
go a cheaper route?
Thanks guys,
Dom

I do it every 90 days at the longest, and did my first change at 500
miles.
GM is Mobil 1.

Re: New C5
my only recommendation is: on the short trips make sure the engine has a chance
to warm up to operating temperature. normally this takes about 12 miles.
depending on weather and such, heck round it off and make it 20.
